2022 Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia

This wine comes from the same vineyards, under the same sky, from the same philosophy. Le Serre Nuove dellÆOrnellaia is a proud second wine. It has the gift of anticipating the character of the vintage, but at the same time offers its very own, unmistakable take on it. The pleasure of enjoying Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia develops over time, adding the charm of maturity to the verve of youth. Despite the sunny character of the vintage, Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia 2022 is an expression of great elegance and freshness. The wine has a purple-red color of great intensity and on the nose it exudes aromas of ripe black fruit, spices and lightly toasted wood. On the palate, it opens with a juicy, full-bodied attack and progresses on a rich tannin structure with beautiful density. The finish is soft and very long-lasting. Le Serre Nuove dellÆOrnellaia is already a pleasure to drink. It will reach its perfect maturity in ten years. The 2022 vintage in Bolgheri was characterized by a rather classic winter with temperatures similar to the seasonal averages, followed by a rather cool and dry start to spring. These climatic conditions caused the vines to sprout later than usual. From May onwards, our region suffered a long period of heat and drought lasting around 75 days, which put a heavy strain on the development cycle of the vines. The plants suffered from a considerable lack of water during the growth, flowering and ripening phases, resulting in a vintage with low yields.
