Tenuta Sette Cieli Tenuta Sette Cieli Yantra 2022 750ml

Aromas of vanilla, black cherry, fresh coffee and raspberry coulis create an indulgently sweet nose. The palate brings more cherries and raspberries, but also tangier fruit notes of dried cranberry and blood orange. Despite all the serious, dense fruit, there is a marvelous freshness to this wine, making it delightfully approachable.

The 2022 Yantra is a tasty, easygoing red to drink now and over the next few years. Crushed flowers, spice and mocha meld into a core of dense red cherry/plum fruit in this mid-weight offering.

There’s an earthy overtone to the blackberry and plum flavors in this sinewy red, with accents of licorice and tobacco adding depth. Though balanced, the finish is compact. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2028. 4,500 cases imported. (Bruce Sanderson)
