2011 Tenuta Sette Ponti Oreno Toscana IGT

Red Bordeaux Blend more

12/3/2016 - Motz wrote: 94 points

The bouquet offers a harmonious balance of lush fruit, rustic terroir, and quality oak, with floral, herb, dark chocolate, and espresso accents. (Noticeably less oaky that then 2010 Fontalloro tasted next to it.) The wine's weight imparts an impression of viscosity. Not excessively polished. Intriguing, balanced, and in some way reminiscent of the 2010 Pontet Canet. One of the more approachable vintages of Oreno at a young age, but it is no whimp, packing a serious tannic wallop that begins at the middle and lingers through a complex finish. It should evolve over the next eight to ten years. It held its own next to a 2012 Ornellaia.

Upon opening a savory sour cherry nose, with some tar and mint on the side. Very present nose. Seems to be getting in its prime, although the color is a deep cherry red and its a rather thick wine to pour with still mostly primary and secondary aroma's. Seems to gain weight over time, at first had a medium bodied mouthfeel, later turned to full bodied. I started out a 91, butIt becomes more interesting as time progresses. Its my last 2005, but I'll be more carefull with my '09's, because its clear the 05 had much much more life ahead of it. Great experience nonetheless !

Rasins and cassis on the nose. Tobacco and slightly over-extracted red fruit. Shows Italian origin through and through. Good food wine.

känns som jag satt ett på tok för högt betyg här men provar man blint så gör man och jag tycker detta vinet hade en härlig dot av ålder, hallon höstsko, tryffel och stall.
smaken har en bra ballans med hallonfrukt, och lite aceton som lurade mig hela vägen till BArolo...

On the nose: Stable, pigsty, black currant, truffles, autumn forest, licorice.
On the palate: Acidity and raspberry.
Medium finish

The nose was fantastic but the palate was lacking the final touch to reach higher.

A fine wine for the price. Cassis and red fruit come through although not much depth.

similar to our July notes. This is peaking and deserves to be opened and shared.

Solid, well balanced wine with plenty of life and ability to age. Nice cross between a Bordeaux and new world style, with concentration and decent extraction along with acidity, tannins, and subtle oak. Continues to improve and has lots of potential over another 10 years.

Closed at first then opens up to reveal smoky currants and toasted pumpernickel bread. A big wine but artfully balanced; full and compact fruit, rich, chewy tannin. High 15% alcohol, but it is well integrated and not obvious. Good, firm finish.
4.5/5

Beginning its prime. Very good balance, blackberry and plum. Tannins still very present with acidity (not overwhelming) on the finish. Good length but not very complex.

It's a wine designed for early appreciation , ready to show what it has. Well rounded, international style which maybe not distinctive but with enough layers to keep it interesting. Hard not to like it though this is not fruit forward wine.To me, this is a bargain given a fair price and and I would be happy to enjoy it any day. It compete with many lower tear Bordeaux wines but kind of gives away it's Italian origins. Don't over think, just enjoy.

Not decanted and a big mistake. There is a lot here and needs air to soften up
90-91 last night but I don't think that's what's in the bottle

Splash decanted.
Clear, deep ruby.
A pronounced nose of blackcurrant, plum, prune, dark cherry, cedar, green bell peppers (faint) and Chinese herbs (less faint with air). Developing.
High acidity, medium(+) body, medium(+) grippy tannins. Mouth-caressing rich dark fruits. Medium(+) finish.
A big, driven wine, still rather in its infancy. Quite ripe and primary. Pair this with some serious meats (think churrascaria). Better yet, wait for another 2 or 3 years.

This wine is drinking well right now. Enjoyed at a restaurant with a short decant. Wine opened up and was very nice on the nose. Great finish.

a little disappointed in this wine...maybe wasn't paired with the right food...the normal, nice Italian characteristics...but found the wine a little bit too unbalanced with an alcoholic finish...still enjoyable though...sweet fruit, cranapple/berry...

Decanted & drank with a cheese plate. Blackberry & dark cherry flavors. Young wine with much upside. Great structure, fruits, tannins & acidity. Note to self - revisit in 2020. Potential of 95 points.

Stunning! Drinking perfectly now. Opens up after 30--45 in the glass. Mouthfuls of black licorice, dried meat, and herbs. hint of mint. One of the best super Tuscans I had ever enjoyed. After ten years, she is amazing!

Not as good as an '04 we opened several months ago. This has definitely peaked and is showing tawny orange on the rim. The fruit is fading and the acidity is negligible. It was fine with a roast pork tenderloin and mushroom risotto. Definitely opening our last bottle very soon.
