WINERY Bolgheri and Castagneto Carducci, on the Tuscan coast 1,300 above sea level. The 173-acre estate overlooks terraced vineyards and the Tyrrhenian Sea, and is surrounded by the lush woods of Monteverdi Marittimo. Seventeen acres of high-density vineyards are planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec. Because of Tenuta Sette Cieli’s respect for nature, the winery has chosen organic practices to safeguard the environment. Everything is done by hand in the vineyards, with careful attention to each detail. The journey continues in the cellar where the winery employs single-variety vinification. Fermentation starts with wild yeasts, and the final selection of the wines is done only after a period of barrel aging in French oak barrels.

WINE Noi4 (noy-kwah-tro) translates to “the four of us.” This is because it is composed by four varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.

This year’s growing season began with a cool, unusually dry winter, swiftly shifting into a warm spring and culminating in a scorching hot summer. Despite the drought’s predictable impact on yields, the surviving fruit promises exceptional quality, concentrated and full of promise. As we anticipate the harvest, I am reminded of nature’s resilience and the dedication of those who nurture our vineyards. May this vintage be celebrated for the exceptional wines it will bring forth.

Cold with dry ice for 6-7 days. In stainless-steel tanks at controlled temperatures; with indigenous yeast; 100% malolactic.

A rich, deep and complex wine that interprets what was a particularly warm and sunny year. The taste reveals a great balance due to a high natural acidity that gives a pleasant freshness and firmness.
