2021 Orma Toscana
£62.00
“Bright ruby red. Fragrant, floral, with notes of wild berries, some lightly resinous notes, cassis, expressive, pure, inviting. On the palate, punchy, with lots of tannins, energetic, with a wonderful juiciness, at the moment still very young, with a bright future ahead.”
97 Points, Falstaff (tasted Sept 2023)
“Orma, Sette Ponti’s sister estate based in Bolgheri, is – like Sette Ponti’s Oreno – Merlot-based, but it’s a different blend in a different place and, in my opinion, reaches greater heights. Spicy, brambly berry aromas with some dusty wood and chocolate notes are followed in the mouth by super-fresh acidity, introducing some ripe black fruits then a stony mid-palate. A fine web of silky tannins supports the fruit, while herbal and balsamic edges bring a sense of freshness and levity to the concentrated fruit. The finish is long, succulent and fresh, with some fresh and dried black fruits accompanied by spice and chocolate. Great balance.”

Product Description
Orma is located on the Bolgherese Provincial Road, a Wine Road, just a short distance from the most historic vineyards in the area. It’s in the heart of the Bolgheri DOC appellation, with Ornellaia to the right and Sassicaia to the left.
The Moretti Cuseri family, today in its third generation, made its way to Bolgheri in 2004, captivated by the beauty of the area and determined to embrace the strengths of such a special wine production area. Their enthusiasm for Bordeaux blends began at the historic family estate Tenuta Sette Ponti in Castiglion Fibocchi with Oreno, an icon in the world of wine. The family decided to take this love of Cabernet and Merlot to the Tuscan coast, another fascinating and highly suitable winegrowing area with enormous potential. It was an adventure Antonio Moretti Cuseri decided to go on with sons Alberto and Amedeo.
Orma is the name of the first wine produced by the estate of the same name. It is made from 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Cabernet Franc and has been recognized nationally and internationally since its very first vintage in 2005.
