2019 Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia, Bolgheri 1x75cl

Antonio Galloni 93

The 2019 Le Serre Nuove dell Ornellaia is delicate, refined and exceptionally beautiful. Floral accents and mid-weight structure inform a Serre Nuove that is all finesse. Dark red berry fruit, licorice, incense, cedar, aromatic dark spice and leather all meld together in an understated, fabulous Serre Nuove that delivers the goods. The 2019 is especially aromatic for a Merlot-based wine from the Tuscan coast. Give it a few years to come together. [Antonio Galloni, 01/03/2022]

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is extroverted in the glass. Exotic spices and cedar shavings complement medicinal cherry and sweet rose. This is soft and round on the palate, with a polished wave of ripe red and hints of blue fruit. Its tannins come forward through the finish, combined with a pleasantly bitter tinge as a tart cranberry tension lingers. [Eric Guido, 07/12/2023]

Certified organic by ICEA. Just mid ruby. Minerally cherry fruit with a balsamic note of eucalyptus. Gorgeous, succulent, tangy cherry fruit mellowed by a little oak and with a layer of rich, chewy tannins. Super-seductive, with loads of character. (WS) [25/10/2023]
