Le Volte dell’Ornellaia 2023 opens with ripe blueberry and blackberry aromas. Generous and enticing flavours ensue and complement a beautiful balance between breadth and freshness. An enduring finish goes hand in hand with silky tannins that elevate the wine’s elegance.
55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot
The different varietals were fermented separately in small steel tanks to maintain their characteristics. The alcoholic fermentation was followed by malolactic fermentation, again in steel tanks. The wine was then aged for 10 months, partly in barriques used previously for Ornellaia and partly in concrete tanks, to obtain the perfect balance between tannic structure and the expression of fresh fruit.
The 2023 Le Volte dell’Ornellaia is a total delight. Fresh, aromatic and vibrant, Ornellaia’s Sangiovese-based blend delivers the goods in an affordable package. A burst of bright, red-toned fruit opens first, followed by scents of tobacco, cedar and dried herbs. This classy, polished red is very nicely done. There’s a bit more Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend these days, and it works quite well.
