LE VOLTE MAGNUM TENUTA DELL'ORNELLAIA 2024 DESCRIPTION

Tenuta dell’Ornellaia is one of the most renowned and well-known wineries in all of Italy, symbol of a wine-growing area, that of Bolgheri, which over the course of a few decades has established itself at the top of the global quality rankings for the production of great red wines. Here is born the “Le Volte”, a blend where the softness of Merlot combines with the intensity of Cabernet Sauvignon together with the strength of Sangiovese, creating a label that reflects the philosophy of the winery, always attentive to providing balance and concentration to the cultivated grapes. An elegant and precise product, well-defined in every organoleptic component, both in primary and varietal aromas, as well as in secondary and tertiary ones.

“Le Volte” from Tenuta dell’Ornellaia is a red made from a careful blend of international and native grape varieties. Merlot, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon are meticulously selected during the harvest and vinified separately in small steel tanks, undergoing both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Then the aging process begins, taking place in both used barriques and cement tanks, lasting for 10 months.

"Le Volte" is a label produced by Tenuta dell'Ornellaia that impresses from the very first glance with its beautiful, particularly intense ruby red color. The aromatic spectrum is structured around notes of forest fruits, interspersed with floral scents and sweet spices, resulting from aging in wood. On the palate, it is full-bodied, characterized by a great softness and roundness that make the drinking experience incredibly smooth and flowing. A red to drink immediately or to keep in the cellar for a few more years, to taste it in a more evolved and mature version: in either case, it will not disappoint you.

When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
