The Volte of Ornellaia is a Toscana Rosso that expresses the philosophy and style of Ornellaia in an accessible and convivial way. The result of a blend of Merlot, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon, it combines the Mediterranean softness with the structure and complexity typical of the Bolgheri estate. The grapes, hand-picked, come from both the estate’s vineyards and selected parcels in Tuscany. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, followed by 10 months of aging in second and third passage barriques, which ensures balance and harmony. On the nose, it offers notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and tobacco, while on the palate it stands out for its freshness, silky tannins, and good persistence. A versatile and refined red, perfect with red meats, pasta with rich sauces, or aged cheeses.
