Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia Magnum - 2021 - Bolgheri DOC Rosso
The wine displays a bright ruby red with the usual purple highlights in the glass.
Rich aromas, soft and silky tannins, dense-packed yet supple.
Fresh aromas of red berries and balsamic notes of spices (pink pepper).
The grapes were handpicked into 15 kg baskets. The bunches were selected by hand on a double sorting table before and after de-stemming, then soft-pressed. Each variety and each parcel of land was vinified separately. The alcoholic fermentation occurred partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in concrete vats at temperatures between 22-28°C for two weeks, followed by maceration for about 10-15 days. The malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel, and the wine was racked into barriques (25% new and 75% used once). The wine remained in barriques in Ornellaia's temperature-controlled cellars for about 15 months. After the first 12 months, the wine was blended and then returned to the barriques for an additional three months of aging. The wine remains in the bottle for another six months prior to release.
Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia is the "second wine" produced by Ornellaia, following the same philosophy of the great Chateaux of Bordeaux. The first year of production was 1997, the wine having the same designation of origin, coming from the same terroir and types of grapes, from the same practices used in the vineyard, vinification processes and maturation in oak barrels as in the case of Ornellaia. Obtained in most of the younger vines of the estate, Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia can be described as a younger approach to Ornellaia wine. The complexity and structure of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc are complemented by the silky roundness of Merlot and the freshness and crunchy acidity of Petit Verdot.
