"This is a tight and powerful Orma with solid tannins that beautifully frame the fruit in the wine. Full-bodied and focused with intense structure and fruit character. Perhaps the best Orma ever."97 Points - James Suckling "A blend of 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Orma opens to a soothing display of ripe fruit with blackberry, candied cherry, spice, white pepper and even a speck of red chili flake. The mouthfeel is round and soft with a pop of sour cherry."95 Points - Robert Parker Purchased in 2004 by Tenuta Sette Ponti owner, Dr. Antonio Moretti, Orma is a 5.5 hectare estate that is nestled between two illustrious neighbours Sassicaia and Ornellaia, in Bolgheri, coastal Tuscany’s outstanding wine region. Bolgheri has long boasted an impressive reputation in the world, earning its prestige as one of the most impressive and creative production areas in the world wine, noted for its experimentation with innovative blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This is an elegant, sumptuous wine eloquently expressing the finest qualities and full potential of its terroir, the perfect imprint of Antonio Moretti Cuseri upon a world-class production area. A wine of exuberant character, yet exhibiting undeniable finesse, Orma is a classic example of the high-quality wine produced in Bolgheri. This blend of 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Cabernet Franc is grown in clay and pebble-rich soils of Bolgheri. Aged for 18 months in small barrels, and aged in bottle for a further year before release. The nose is rich with aromas of intense berry fruit and spice with hints of tobacco. The palate is soft and velvety, with spice and full-ripe sweet fruit. Very long finish.
