The 2023 Crognolo is fresh, vibrant and nuanced. Crushed flowers, bright red-toned fruit, cinnamon and a kick of blood orange are nicely pushed forward. A dollop of Merlot rounds out the contours. The 2023 is an absolute delight. Aging is done in neutral French oak barriques and tonneaux.
Winemaker Notes
Intense ruby red in color with a fruity, spicy bouquet and ripe cherry and berries on the palate.
Delicious with full-flavored meats, game and roasts.
Winey Notes
The estate of Sette Ponti lies in the heart of the Chianti zone, fifteen miles northwest of the city of Arezzo just past the village of San Giustino Valdarno. The Via del Monte, known locally as the Via dei Sette Ponti, leads into a beautiful hidden valley and to the estate. The name Sette Ponti, or "seven bridges," refers to the seven bridges crossing the Arno River on the road from Arezzo to Florence. Erected in the mid 13th century, it took nearly forty years to build, and is perceptible in the right far background of Leonardo DaVinci's Mona Lisa.
