Description
Sometimes 'super' runs in the family. Le Serre Nuove is the little sibling of the famous Supertuscan Ornellaia, and is a powerhouse in its own right. It's a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot grown in Tenuta dell'Ornellaia's younger vineyards. Expect a rich tapestry of fresh currants, dark cherry, meat, vanilla, chocolate and woodsmoke. Savour over the next 10-12 years with red meats and black truffles.

Tasting Notes
The Ornellaia 2020 Bolgheri Rosso Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia (a proprietary blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) is a generous and darkly toned red blend that has the extra fruit fiber, sweetness and generous plumpness of a warm vintage. The fullness of the fruit is on full display, but in a very relaxed and natural manner. The wine never feels like too much. The tannins are yielding and velvety, and this purebred Tuscan red wraps thickly over the palate. It's poised for near- and medium-term drinking. Drink date: 2022-2033. Score - 93.
