Ornellaia Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia DOC

Grape Variety: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot

 

Alcohol: 14% Vol

 

Vinification:The clusters were hand-picked into 15-kg boxes and then selected by hand on a double sorting table, before and after de-stemming, and finally gently crushed. Each variety and each parcel was vinified separately. Alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel, at temperatures of between 26 and 30℃ for two weeks followed by maceration of around 10-15 days. Malolactic fermentation was started in stainless steel, and completed after transfer to barrels (25% new and 75% a year old). The wine remained in Ornellaia's temperature-controlled cellar for a further 15 months. It was assembled after the first 12 months and then reintroduced in the barrels for a further 3 months. After bottling, it was aged for an additional six months prior to release.

 

Colour:Intense colour and youthful appearance,


Bouquet: Its intense and ripe fruity aroma with subtle spicey and toasted highlights are detected on the nose


Taste: Well-rounded and satin-smooth on the palate, great texture and harmoniously balanced,with a succulent fruitiness which ends with a zesty finish with no sharp edges, freshened by balsamic notes.
