Le Volte Dell’Ornellaia 2023 Bolgheri

Le Volte dell’Ornellaia 2023 is the “entry point” into the world of one of Bolgheri’s most prestigious estates. It is a wine designed to combine the richness and structure typical of the Tuscan coast with an immediate and pleasant drinkability.

Here is the description for the 2023 vintage:

Organoleptic Profile

• Color: Intense and vibrant ruby red.

• Nose: A very fresh and fruity bouquet. Hints of tart red fruits (cherry and raspberry) prevail, combined with delicate notes of rose petals and a hint of black pepper. The undertone is slightly toasted, typical of the brief passage in wood.

• Taste: In the mouth it is balanced and dynamic. It stands out for its softness and lively acidity, making it extremely smooth. The tannins are subtle and smooth, with a clean finish reminiscent of Mediterranean herbs.

Technical Characteristics

• Grape varieties: A blend of Merlot, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot gives roundness, Sangiovese freshness and Cabernet the necessary backbone.

• Aging: Ages for about 10 months, partly in used barrels (so as not to overpower the fruit) and partly in concrete tanks, to preserve aromatic integrity.

• Philosophy: Unlike the “great” Ornellaia, Le Volte is created to be enjoyed from its first months in the bottle, without the need for long aging.

In summary

Le Volte 2023 is a versatile, sunny and convivial wine. It perfectly represents the elegant style of Ornellaia in a younger, more accessible key, ideal for those seeking Bolgheri quality in a ready-to-drink format.

Ideal pairing: First courses with meat sauce, grilled meats, rich gourmet pizzas or a classic board of Tuscan cold cuts and cheeses.
