In the heart of Tuscany, Tenuta Sette Ponti produces Crognolo, a red wine that captures the essence of this famous wine-growing region. This Toscana IGT is a refined expression of Sangiovese with a small percentage of Merlot, adding interesting complexity and softness to the blend.
The winery, ideally located between the historic cities of Arezzo and Florence, takes advantage of the unique terroir to cultivate grapes that are full of aromas and nuances. Crognolo has an intense ruby red color, with hints of garnet as it ages.
The nose is immediately captured by scents of ripe red fruit such as cherries and plums, with overlaying hints of spices and vanilla, a result of aging in barriques. On the palate, the wine is rich and structured, with an elegant balance between soft tannins and lively acidity. Notes of chocolate and tobacco blend with ripe fruit, giving this wine a remarkable taste persistence.
Crognolo is a wine that ages beautifully, capable of evolving well for several years in the cellar. It is perfect to accompany hearty dishes like grilled red meats, game, and aged cheeses.
A glass of Crognolo offers a true exploration of Tuscany's winemaking riches, recounting through its taste the skill and passion that Tenuta Sette Ponti dedicates to the creation of each bottle. Ideal for those who wish to immerse themselves in the authentic flavors of Tuscany and appreciate the result of winemaking done with dedication and craftsmanship.
