Tenuta Sette Ponti is a historic estate in Chianti in the heart of Tuscany. The estate has an incredible history unlike anybody else’s as it was first planted by Prince Amedeo of Savoy-Aosta and Viceroy of Ethiopia in 1935 to celebrate conquering the Ethiopian Empire. The vineyard was originally labeled “Vigna dell’Impero” (Vineyard of the Empire) and is home to a very famous, ancient Sangiovese clone which is the only of its kind.
A few decades later – the property was bought by Architect Alberto Moretti Cuseri from the Princess (the daughter of Prince Amedeo). He immediately began transforming the enormous 750 acre property into the marvel it is today.
Vineyards, acres of livestock roaming around and a ton of mixed agriculture, now make up this enormous estate. Wine production only started in the 1990’s, but it found immediate success and has done wonders to spread the legacy of Tenuta Sette Ponti.
Today, they are known for their work with Reds and Sangiovese especially. The ‘Crognolo’, today’s offer, was the first label at this historic estate. It’s made from the clones from the estate’s oldest vineyard, and helped drive the reputation here as one of the nation’s best producers. That was furthered by the release of the ‘Oreno’ a wine widely considered one of the best Tuscany bottlings of any kind.

95 Points, James Suckling
The purity of fruit is impressive in this wine with currants, orange peel, peaches and lemon in the nose and on the palate. Full-bodied yet compressed and agile. Flavorful finish. Reserved now, but if you give it a year or two it will really deliver.

Ultra fresh juicy cherries with more delicate aromas of violets and rose petals on the nose roll onto a palate rich with more cherries and berries balanced by earthy, astringent notes of soil, branches and roots and a finish of bitter cocoa and anise.
The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
Anne Sery describes her Trousse Chemise Cabernets as an ode to the Left Bank and her winemaking roots. It’s a beautiful and fresh Cabernet with aromas that leap from the glass with of black raspberry, violets, and creme de liquor notes. The mouth gives generous amounts of juicy black fruits at the core with hints of baking spice and a smooth, savory finish. This is a terrific partner for just about anything from hard cheese, to poultry, summer salads, you name it!
