The Ornellaia estate was first the creation of Ludovico Antinori. His desire to set his own standards apart from the family firm had led him to the Tuscan Coast at Bolgheri, adjacent to his cousin Nicolo Incia's Tenuta San Guido of Sassicaia. The combination of soil and man made this one of the pre-eminent modern wineries of Italian fine wine. The turn of the century saw the estate move into the ownenrship of that other Tuscan royal wine family, Frescobaldi, following a short period of joint ownership with California's Mondavi. The Bordeaux influenced wines of the estate are icons of International Styled Italian wine.
Tenuta del Ornellaia Le Volte Toscana IGT 2023
13% abv
Vol- 75cl
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, Le Volte is the fantastic value Italian buy from the team behind Ornellaia. The 2022 shows soft, fruity flavours of ripe red cherry, plum, blackberry and blackcurrant infused with pepper and fresh herbs such as sage and thyme. The palate is nicely rounded, with supple, melting tannins providing support to the bright, spiced, fruit. It delivers the trademark Ornellaia style in a playful, earlier drinking format and can be enjoyed from the get-go, although we would happily cellar for three to five years.
