Is it in Bolgheri that Antonio Moretti Cuseri has left his new footprint, or Orma in Italian?
This is no simple word-play, but rather heralds a wine estate which he acquired in Bolgheri, in the province of Livorno, after searching for a wine-growing area of absolute quality.
Bolgheri has long boasted an impressive reputation in the world of great wines, earning its prestige as one of the most impressive and creative production areas in the entire world of wines as a result of a number of forward-thinking producers and of the area’s experimentation with innovative blends of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. An unusual alchemy fuses together climate, soils, culture, and tradition to make Bolgheri an exceptional terroir for the production of powerful yet refined wines of unsurpassed quality.
What the critics say:
"Tobacco, sage and rosemary come through nicely, together with redcurrants and cassis. Full-bodied, yet polished, with a solid and dense center-palate. Tight at the end now, but will open nicely. Needs two or three years to develop. 50% merlot, 30% cabernet sauvignon and 20% cabernet franc. Try after 2025."
"Fragrant and expressive on the nose, the floral / dried herbal scents mingle on the nose putting you squarely in Tuscany. Lifted and beautiful, a sensational vibrant, lively, pure and pristine wine. So carefully delivered in terms of texture with a joyous quality to the fruit flavours and mineral aspects - a cleanness and precision. Detailed and finessed. Stunning with fleshy but well-integrated tannins and a kick all the way through to a long fresh finish. Complexity and structure, supremely balanced. A top pick and great value! Ageing 18 months in French oak barriques and tonneaux then in bottle for one year before being released."
