The 2009 Oreno Tezuta Sette Ponti is intense on the nose with cut hay, cherry, pine, oak, anise, vanilla and prune notes. It is a medium to full bodied, extra-dry, integrated wine, with notable acidity and tannins (decant for 2+ hours at which point the wine's acidity & tannins integrate together) and a medium to long, silky, finish. Drink as a sipper; drink 2018-2030 (cork is long and quite thick), evolution potential of +1 or 2 pts. My impression: NICE to BEAUTIFUL, 91 pts - for connoisseurs with a deep cellar and a pocket. Tasted June/13.
