Wine Advocate on SETTE PONTI

Tenuta Sette Ponti is a beautiful 130-hectare property with vineyards, forests, meadows and lakes in the Arno River Valley at about 250 to 300 meters in elevation. Farming is organic, and a holistic fertilization program uses fermented manure from the horse paddocks. The estate also uses foliar fertilization made from natural extracts and seaweed. There's no doubt that the wines are well made, but stylistically, they fall into a Bordeaux-inspired category that often sees abundant oak sweetness and tannins.

James Suckling, July 2023

Blackcurrants and black cherries with lovely flowers on the nose. Medium-bodied with ultra fine tannins that give focus and tension to the wine. Pretty and poised. A little shy now. From organically grown grapes.

James Suckling, 2021

This is a tight and powerful Orma with solid tannins that beautifully frame the fruit in the wine. Full-bodied and focused with intense structure and fruit character. Perhaps the best Orma ever.

Wine Advocate on FEUDO MACCARI

"Feudo Maccari is the Sicilian estate owned by textile entrepreneur Antonio Moretti. He also owns Tenuta Sette Ponti in Tuscany and makes some of the region’s best red blends. Moretti was attracted to Sicilian viticulture early on and set out to create great Sicilian reds to match his portfolio of super Tuscans. The territory he selected between Noto and Pachino in southeast Sicily is especially celebrated for Nero d’Avola. Recently, Moretti added the 100% Syrah Maharis to his growing portfolio."

James Suckling, September 2024

A juicy and tangy nero d’avola with red berry and orange peel aromas and flavors, light tannins and a fruity finish. Just the right amount of tannins to keep it lively. From organically grown grapes. Screw cap.

Falstaff, 2024

Bright, pronounced straw yellow. Pleasant with a delicate aroma on the nose of yellow peach, white flowers and a hint of marzipan. Clear and light-footed on the palate, animating acidity, beautiful drinking flow through to the finish.

About FEUDO MACCARI
