Winemaking

The different varietals were fermented separately in small steel tanks to maintain their varietal characteristics. The alcoholic fermentation was followed by malolactic fermentation, again in steel tanks. The wine was then aged for 10 months, partly in barrique used previously for Ornellaia and partly in concrete tanks, to obtain the perfect balance between tannic structure and an expression of fresh fruit.

A remarkable wine, coming from the best plots on the coast, combining grapes specific to Tuscany-Sangiovese, with grapes specific to Bordeaux. Sangiovese gives the wine opulence and freshness, and Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot grapes give structure and complexity to the wine. A product with the same attention to quality that characterizes every product made by Ornellaia, Le Volte first appears in 1991.
