Descrizione

Crognolo is the first wine produced by Tenuta Sette Ponti, originated in 1998 within the winemaking project of the Moretti Cuseri family. It has a distinctive elegance and a unique identity, which combines the valorisation of the territory and the vines with principles of excellence, rigor and innovation, all rooted in a tradition capable of adapting to evolution.

It is a careful selection of Sangiovese coming from a unique clone, enriched with a touch of Merlot which gives immediacy and longevity to the wine. Its intense ruby red color anticipates a complex and pronounced aromatic bouquet, with rich notes of ripe red fruit, such as cherries and berries, floral accents of violet, aromatic herbs and spicy nuances that give the wine class and elegance. In the mouth, it manifests itself with body, flavor and softness, suggesting excellent aging potential. The tasting experience is enveloping, with juicy tannins and notable freshness.

Ideal in combination with roast or grilled meats, stewed red meat and game-based dishes.

Winery history

The estate is associated with the Moretti Cuseri family: the modern foundations of its winemaking activity were established in the 20th century with historic vineyards, including the 'Vigna dell’Impero' planted in 1935. In the 1990s the estate began producing its own wines with its first labels, and in recent years management has passed to the family's third generation. The name refers to the via dei sette ponti that links the banks of the Arno between Florence and Arezzo.

Production philosophy

A pursuit of quality and elegance, with a focus on respect for the land and agronomic practices: the vineyards are managed organically, as stated by the estate. The approach combines Tuscan tradition and experimentation.

Terroir and vineyards

Location: Castiglion Fibocchi, Valdarno di Sopra, a hilly area between Florence and Arezzo. The landscape is characterized by historic vineyards, woodlands and watercourses linked to the local history.
