| | | Last week we offered the entry level offering from Sette Ponti ‘Orma’ – Passi di Orma. Now it is time to check out the big brother, Orma ‘Orma’. Literally, Orma sits between Sassicaia, to the north, and Ornellaia, to the south. Orma’s proprietor, Antonio Moretti, is better known for the wines he makes at his Tenuta Sette Ponti, but Orma has come on very strong and I’m certain will be regarded as one of the top Super Tuscans in the immediate future. One of my favorite Super Tuscans due to the price-to-quality ratio, Orma is a wine you can age, or enjoy now. A full-bodied wine with soft tannins and a soft, velvety mouthfeel. A Tuscan masterpiece… Delicious! |
| | | "The cabernet sauvignon character comes through nicely in this red, particularly on the palate, with currants, both red and black, as well as dried flowers and cedar. Some lead pencil as well. Medium body, with polish, finesse and beauty. Lovely length and grace. This is a move towards better balance and energy for Orma. One to watch. A blend of mostly merlot with cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc." 97 James Suckling, Aug 2024
“This wine always brings the finesse, with a medium intensity jewel-like colour and a clear focus on red fruits, raspberry, cranberry, touch of salinity brought by its location close to the sea, layered with dried roses, cassis bud, orange peel, savoury white pepper and mint leaf. Good quality and a clear Tuscan interpretation of the Bordeaux grapes, making this a wine to seek out. One year in bottle after barrel ageing before release. Clay, gravel and sand soils, vineyard located just 15m above sea level, Moretti Cuseri family, first vintage 2005. Heavy bottle a little incongruous.”
