Malolactic fermentation took place in steel vats, then the wines were transferred to barriques (25% new and 75% second-passage). The wine remained in barriques in Ornellaia's temperature-controlled cellar for a period of about 15 months. After the first 12 months, blending was carried out and then reintroduced into the barriques where it spent another 3 months.

APPEARANCE:

BOUQUET:
The nose is fresh, with hints of pink pepper and cypress berries, reminiscent of the Mediterranean scrub.
TASTING NOTES:
On the palate the wine is elegant, with nice acidity and a lingering, savory finish that invites a second sip. It is enveloping and round, enhanced by a velvety tannic texture and a full flavor played on fruity and balsamic notes that persist in the long finish.

FOOD PAIRINGS:
At table it goes well with aged cheeses and structured earthy dishes of red meats and game.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Born from the same GRAPE, under the same sky, the same philosophy. Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia is a proud second wine; it has the gift of anticipating the character of the estate's iconic wine's VINTAGE and, at the same time, offering its own point of view. The joy of its sip evolves over time, adding to the energy of youth the charm of maturity.
