Suckling:
" The purity of fruit is impressive in this wine with currants, orange peel, peaches and lemon in the nose and on the palate. Full-bodied yet compressed and agile. Flavorful finish. Reserved now, but if you give it a year or two it will really deliver." 95 Punkte

Parker:
"The organic Tenuta Sette Ponti 2021 Crognolo is a mid-entry blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Merlot that goes into oak for up to 14 months. Fruit is harvested from a historic clone of Sangiovese found on this estate. The wine shows dark concentration, certainly more than you'd expect from Sangiovese, with lots of cherry, spice and blue flower that ties directly into the Merlot. It offers a medium to full-bodied texture with fine, chalky tannins. This is a big release of 90,000 bottles." 92 Punkte

Falstaff:
"Leuchtendes Rubinviolett. Ausdrucksstark, nach Brombeeren und satten Kirschen, im Hintergrund feine würzige Komponenten. Am Gaumen kompakt, konzentriert, mit griffigem Tannin, welches auch saftig wird, salzig im Nachhall." 92 Punkte
