Trialto’s 25th Anniversary celebration continues by highlighting a winery whose story is one of family, passion, dedication, and especially a great love for vineyards and their traditions. It is the always stunning Tenuta Sette Ponti, from Tuscany, Italy!In 1935, Prince Amedeo of Savoy-Aosta and Viceroy of Ethiopia planted the first vineyards on his property between Florence and Arezzo to celebrate having taken over the Ethiopian Empire. Called the “Vigna dell’Impero” (Vineyard of the Empire), it is home to an ancient Sangiovese clone, which ended up being the only one of its kind. Twenty years later, it inspired Architect Alberto Moretti Cuseri to plant other vineyards and to fully dedicate himself to his passion for viticulture, giving impetus to what today is the Tenuta Sette Ponti. He dedicated himself to his greatest passions at the estate: the production of wine and olive oil, and hunting. Thanks to the great suitability of the land, he began working the vineyards to produce grapes to sell to producers, but he didn’t make his own wine.In the 1990s, Alberto’s son Antonio Moretti Cuseri, driven by a passion and an interest in wine he had since he was young, took control of his father’s winery, and worked alongside the best viticulturists and enologists to evaluate the suitability of the land to produce quality wines, thus launching his own brand. He stopped sellingTenuta Sette Pontioducers and in 1998 released his first label: Crognolo, which is made from clones of the historic Sangiovese vines in the estate’s oldest vineyard, Vigna dell’Impero. In 1999, Antonio released the first vintage of Oreno, a wine that after only three harvests reached the top of the most important world wine rankings. In-depth research, an incredible love for vines and for age-old expertise about the art of winemaking has made it possible to make exceedingly high quality, organic wines in line with Tuscan traditions. In 2018, Antonio Moretti Cuseri’s children began collaborating with their father. Amedeo is the winery director and Italian market manager, and Alberto is the communications and export director. This new generation represents the company’s strong values, an expression of tradition and the great passion passed down by their father. Thank you, Moretti Cuseri family and team at Tenuta Sette Ponti, for two decades of great partnership. Cheers to many more!#PeoplePlaceandTime⁠#trialto25thanniversary #TenutaSettePonti @tenutasettepontiwinery ... See MoreSee Less
