CRITIC REVIEWS
JancisRobinson.com
Each grape variety and vineyard block were vinified separately. Fermentation in stainless-steel and concrete tanks, followed by maceration for about 15 days, for a total time in the vat of about three weeks. The malolactic fermentation took place mainly in oak barrels, 70% new and 30% second-use. The wine then remained in barriques in Ornellaia s temperature-controlled cellars for about 18 months. After the first 12 months of maturation, the wine was assembled and then returned to the barriques for an additional 6 months. After bottling, the wine aged a further 12 months before release. Deep glowing crimson. Restrained nose - more so that the Serre Nuove. This is all potential rather than actuality. Lots of dense fruit tucked in and quite a bit of tannin. Dry finish. Still a baby!
