Tenuta Sette Cieli Yantra Toscana Rosso 2024 750ml

Tenuta Sette Cieli · Yantra · Toscana IGT · Italy · 2024

Tenuta Sette Cieli — “Estate of Seven Skies” — sits 1,300 feet above sea level in Bolgheri and Castagneto Carducci on the Tuscan coast, its terraced vineyards overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea and the islands of Capraia and Gorgona. Everything is done by hand, with organic and sustainable farming, indigenous yeast fermentation, and single-variety vinification before final blending. Yantra — Sanskrit for “instrument” or “mandala” — is the estate’s entry into the Bolgheri tradition: a Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend aged six months in French oak, earning 89 points from Jeb Dunnuck and delivering exceptional value from one of Tuscany’s most beautifully situated estates.

The 2024 vintage was shaped by dramatic climatic contrasts — a rainy spring, a bone-dry summer, and exceptional September rains that demanded rigorous selection at harvest — yielding wines of striking freshness and aromatic intensity. The Yantra opens with wild blackberry, preserved cherry, brambly earth, spice, and fresh wildflowers. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, with refreshing acidity, crunchy berry fruit, and a touch of mocha on the finish. Lifted, approachable, and built for the near term.

“The 2024 Yantra, a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot aged for six months in French oak, is a fresh and fruit-driven wine with aromas of wild blackberry, preserved cherry, brambly earth, spice, and fresh wildflowers. Medium to full-bodied, it offers refreshing acidity, crunchy berry fruit, and a touch of mocha on the finish. Lifted and approachable, it’s best enjoyed over the near term.”
