Merchant's description

Le Serre Nuove Tenuta dell`Ornellaia 2016 is a blend of Merlot and Cabernet varieties from Bolgheri, Tuscany. This wine is celebrated for its extraordinary balance, aromatic precision and silken tannic structure. The larger format has preserved the wine`s vibrant energy, offering a deep and delineated profile of blackberries, cedar and Mediterranean scrub. Maturation in French oak has added a sophisticated spice and structural weight, while the natural acidity of the vintage provides a long and refreshing finish.
