Tasting: A sophisticated second wine showing remarkable depth and refinement. The nose presents ripe black cherries, cassis, and Mediterranean herbs, with hints of tobacco and dark chocolate. The palate delivers impressive structure with silky tannins, showing the hallmark Bolgheri combination of power and elegance.
Pairing: This refined Bolgheri blend pairs beautifully with pan-seared Sashi Beef, roasted Cinco Jotas Presa, or Lumina Lamb Rack. The wine's structure complements dishes featuring wild Ceps or Morels. For cheese, serve with aged Parmigiano Reggiano or Pecorino Sardo. Black truffle preparations enhance the wine's complexity.
Producer: Ornellaia, established in 1981, represents the epitome of the Bolgheri revolution in Italian wine. Le Serre Nuove, introduced in 1997, is far more than a second wine - it's crafted from the estate's younger vines with the same meticulous attention as the flagship Ornellaia. The wine ages for 15 months in French oak barrels, partially new, following the same rigorous selection and vinification processes as its senior sibling.
Vintage: 2015 stands as an exceptional year in Bolgheri. A perfectly balanced growing season saw regular rainfall in spring, followed by a warm, dry summer with cool nights. These ideal conditions allowed for perfect ripening across all varieties, producing wines of remarkable concentration and freshness, with excellent aging potential.
