The wine

Description and technical sheet

Bolgheri Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia was obtained from a blend of Merlot (44%), Cabernet Sauvignon (26%), Cabernet Franc (18%) and Petit Verdot (12%) grapes from the company's youngest vineyards. After hand harvesting and selection, the clusters were softly pressed. The vinification was carried out separately for each grape variety and batch. Alcoholic fermentation took place for 14 days in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature between 26° C and 30° C accompanied by a maceration of 10-15 days. After malolactic fermentation (which gives more body, aromas and balance in taste) the wine is aged for 15 months in barriques (new for 25% and a second passage for 75%). The assembly of the vinous mass was carried out after the first 12 months of ageing. Before being marketed, the wine rested for a further 6 months in the bottle.

BOLGHERI THE NEW GREENHOUSES OF THE ORNELLAIA: TASTING

Bolgheri Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia seduces the eye with its intense ruby red colour. On the nose, it releases aromas of cherry and small ripe berries combined with balsamic hints and docile notes of aromatic herbs. The sip is enveloping and round, embellished with a velvety tannic texture and a full taste played on fruity and balsamic notes that persist in the long finish. At the table, it goes well with aged cheeses or structured courses based on red meats or game.
