The Le Volte 2023 is a fresh and vibrant Tuscan blend combining Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The nose reveals red cherry, raspberry, and plum layered with hints of spice and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with supple tannins and bright acidity providing lift and drinkability. Flavors of red berries, sour plum, and subtle earthy notes unfold with clarity. The texture is smooth and balanced, emphasizing approachability over structure. The finish is clean, fresh, and gently savory—an elegant, everyday expression of the Ornellaia style.
Tenuta dell’Ornellaia is one of Italy’s most prestigious estates, founded in 1981 in the coastal terroir of Bolgheri and now owned by the Frescobaldi family. The vineyards are planted on a mix of gravel, clay, and sandy soils, influenced by the Tyrrhenian Sea, which helps preserve freshness and aromatic clarity. While best known for its flagship Ornellaia, the estate produces a range of wines that reflect the same commitment to precision and balance. Viticulture is highly parcel-driven, with strict selection and meticulous vineyard management. Winemaking emphasizes harmony, using both stainless steel and oak to refine texture. Le Volte represents the estate’s more approachable, fruit-driven expression.
