Le Volte dell'Ornellaia

Tenuta dell'Ornellaia is located in the hilly area not far from Bolgheri, in an area close to the sea that enjoys an ideal microclimate, caressed by sea breezes and protected from the coldest winds. In the best tradition of the Frescobaldi family, which owns the property, Ornellaia wines are an authentic expression of a heterogeneous terroir of marine, alluvial and volcanic origin, from which white and red wines of rare elegance and high quality are obtained. The production philosophy respects environmental sustainability and the belief that the vineyards must give the best results both through the naturalness of the processes and by enhancing the experience of the human capital employed.

Le Volte dell'Ornellaia is a blend of Merlot grapes with a minor part of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. The vinification is carried out separately in small steel containers to respect the varietal differences during alcoholic fermentation, followed by malolactic fermentation always in steel. The wine then ages for at least 10 months partly in oak barriques previously used for Ornellaia, and partly in concrete tanks to obtain the best balance between the tannic texture and the characteristic of the fruit. A red to be tasted young, as well as aged in the cellar for a few years without ever disappointing the finest palates.
