Tenuta Sette Ponti Vigna dell Impero 1935 Toscana 2019 i trälåda

Le Guide de l'Espresso

Organic Sangiovese from soils rich in rocks and clay. A multifaceted nose of yellow fruit and raspberry, with hints of orange peel, eucalyptus, and a balsamic note in the background. On the palate, velvety tannins: intense, persistent, well-balanced, with a savory and mineral finish.

Explosive and rich, it displays a three-dimensional aromatic profile of remarkable authenticity and integrity, alternating notes of cherry, raspberry, redcurrant, wild strawberries, lemon peel, sandalwood, cumin, and white pepper. Full-bodied, with very fine-grained tannins—elegant and perfectly integrated into the structure—and a clear, clean finish that closes subtly and decidedly elegant.

James Suckling

Ripe, savory cranberries, stones, baked grapefruit, dried herbs and some subtle sweet spices. Tense and mineral on the medium- to full-bodied palate with elastic, chalky tannins and a pure, almost ethereal finish. Impressive texture and savory minerality give this definition.

Decanter

The old vines of Vigna dell'Impero were planted in 1935 on the 2.5ha site's galestro soils. The Sangiovese undergoes a long maceration of over three weeks, while ageing is in large French and Slavonian oak casks of 25hl. It spends one year in bottle before release. Aromas and flavours of dark, rich cherries and berries are accompanied by a hint of balsamic herbs, underlined by bright salinity and elegant fruit sapidity. Really poised and precise, it ends with a hint of creaminess. This still needs time but has a promising future.

Wine Enthusiast

Price: $111| The nose intertwines delicately floral aromas with bright, tart fruit and a dense, savory earthiness. The palate is decisively fruit-forward, but undertones of coffee and dark chocolate maintain a feeling of versatility. A current of acid flows down a cobblestone path of polished, round tannins, before eventually pooling into a warm, luxurious finish.

Falstaff

Bright, elegant ruby red. Opens on the nose with notes of oranges, juicy cherries, rose hips and wet pebbles. Full of finesse on the palate with a great structure, polished tannins and beautiful saltiness, fine oak and spice, with a tobacco finish.
