Despite the sunny character of the 2022 season, this vintage expresses great elegance and freshness. The wine has a crimson colour. On the nose it exudes aromas of ripe black fruit, spices and lightly toasted wood. It opens up on the palate with a juicy and full-bodied attack, advancing with rich and well-concentrated tannins. The finish is soft and very long-lasting. This wine is already a pleasure to drink right now, though it will reach its optimal maturity in ten years.

Vinification
Le Serre Nuove dell’Ornellaia, a genuine «Second Vin», comes predominantly from the younger vineyards of the estate and is produced with the same dedication and attention to detail as Ornellaia. The grapes for the Le Serre Nuove are harvested by hand and undergo a strict selection process. Each grape variety and parcel is vinified separately. The alcoholic fermentation happens over two weeks in stainless steel at temperatures between 26° and 30°C, followed by a maceration period of 10-15 days in total. The young wines age for 15 months in 25% new and 75% used barriques. After the first twelve months they are blended together and further refined for three months in barriques. The young wine then rests for around six months in the bottle before being released on the market.
