Bolgheri Rosso – Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia 2016 Magnum

Terroir:

From its position on the hillside close to Bolgheri, The Ornellaia estate lies hidden in the foothills around Bolgheri that face the Mediterranean coast.

The cool maritime breeze caresses this exceptional Estate and its surrounding olive groves throughout the summer months.

During the winter the hills give protection from the cold northern winds.

Ornellaia believes that wines should be the truest expression of the terroir from which they come.

The diverse nature of the Estate’s soils – marine, alluvial and volcanic – coupled with this maritime climate create an environment in which red and white varietals can express themselves to the full.

This myriad of individual parcels of vines fit into this unspoilt landscape like a mosaic, creating a unique expression of beauty and complexity in an exceptional place.

While experience, skill and determination have all played their part in enhancing the quality and reputation of Ornellaia, it is the Estate itself that is continual source of inspiration, suggesting unique and exciting ways to capture its natural generosity.

Tasting notes

Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia displays above all else the superb ripe fruit characteristic of the vintage.

Its colour is intense and offers a nose rich with ripe dark berryfruit and fruit preserves, enlivened with a delicate vein of spice.

On the palate, full and well-rounded with notably refined, silky tannins.

A seductive acidity keeps all the components in balance, prolonging a finish that has an appealing freshness.
