Tenuta Sette Ponti Crognolo Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2011 (1500ml)
Impressive aromas of blackberries, currants and flowers follow to a full body with super fine tannins and a long, long finish. Super classy. Best ever Crognolo. Always great value... James Suckling

Found my last ‘11; estate of Sette Ponti lies in the heart of the Chianti zone, 15 miles NW of the city of Arezzo past village of San Giustino Valdarno. A blend of 90% Sangiovese & 10% Merlot, aged in French Allier barriques. Deep Ruby with red fruit aromas and earthy floral spice. On the palate ripe blackberry and cherry flavors with earthy spice, savory. Fine soft tannins, nice balance long finish ending with cedar, tobacco and earthy mineral tones.

My last 2011 bottle. The estate of Sette Ponti lies in the heart of the Chianti zone, 15 miles northwest of the city of Arezzo, past the village of San Giustino Valdarno. Crognolo, aged in French Allier barriques, deep red with red fruit aromas and sweet perfumed spice. On the palate raspberry and cherry flavors, gentle spice and soft tannins with great mouthfeel. Good balance, lingering finish ending with some oak and mineral tones. Aged well.

That's some great Sangiovese. Dynamic deep currant, black cherry, soft cinnamon accents.

Terrific wine to consider if you're more new world leaning but in the mood for exploring Italy. Great buy especially if you can find it for $25 or less.

From Arezzo, in Chianti (just outside the Classico region), 80% Sangiovese plus Cab and Merlot, red fruit dominant, chewy tannins.
