Winemaker Notes
Malbec, Cabernet and Merlot come together perfectly in this stimulating, complex and structured wine, better expressing the complex and rich terroir with spicy and red fruit aromas. Freshness, structure, persistence — this is a wine that preserves unchanged traits of the original season and terroir, intensified by 14 months in French oak.
Blend: 34% Malbec, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot

The 2019 Indaco pours a youthful magenta color and takes on a more red-fruited, rosy profile compared to the blue-fruited 2020. It leads with aromas of red cherries, fresh flowers, sweet cedar, and crushed stones. I love the palate, which is linear and focused, with a refreshing spine of acidity and finely coiled tannins. It packs in more tension without feeling underripe. It should drink well over the next 20 years.

Impressive depth here with some pine needle and roasted dark spices to the black cherries and currants. Full-bodied on the palate, with creamy, dissolved tannins that extend to a long yet juicy and fruit-expressive finish. Precise, pure and mineral. Lovely balance. Drink or hold.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Tenuta Sette Cieli 2019 Indaco is a textured wine that has moments of softness and extra richness interwoven with dark fruit, pencil shaving and dried fruit. This vintage naturally delivers concentration and richness, but a dry quality to the fruit remains throughout, especially on the tannins. The blend is equal parts Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

Wine Spectator
Effusive aromas and flavors of blackberry, boysenberry and plum are shaded with vanilla and graphite in this energetic red, which is balanced and focused, with a long, fruit-stained aftertaste. Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2030.
Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.
A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
