It starts lighter, with some cherry and menthol notes, then some darker tones emerge, with sticky black fruits, grippy wood, liquorice and black pepper. Violet overtones and good acidity provide lift on the finish. \u003cstrong\u003e90 James Button, Decanter (2024).\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ornellaia 2022 Bolgheri Rosso Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia is a blend of 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc that saw 15 months in barrique with one-third new oak. Following in the general Ornellaia philosophy, the team has been leaning off long maceration times for more delicate extraction. Blending for this wine usually occurs 12 months after fermentation. This vintage is structured and rich with sweet tannins and a supple texture. This hot vintage brings more fruit weight for sure, but the wine remains fresh and well balanced overall. \u003cstrong\u003e94 Monica Larner, Wine Advocate (2025).\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcellent, full of energy and grip, love the lift here. Love that here you feel these Bordeaux grapes have a reason for being, they are bringing their own character and intensity, and feel like you are in coastal Tuscany, with dried herbs, fennel spice, raspberry, just a lovely lovely wine. You'd be super happy to open this now, but you can keep it. Higher Merlot than usual in this, and yet the tannins are present, providing a channel for the fruit to go through. 30% new oak, held back for six months in bottle. \u003cstrong\u003e95 Jane Anson (2025).\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrinking Window: 2024 - 2029\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Maude Fine Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56992762200224,"sku":"I22-ORNSERR","price":128.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0515\/1889\/8336\/files\/peter-maude-fine-wines-italy-new-zealand-le-serre-nuove-dell-ornellaia-rosso_d31c8c8f-3f5f-4244-8f8f-06404cba98e1.jpg?v=1778028885","url":"https:\/\/www.pmfw.co.nz\/products\/2022-le-serre-nuove-dellornellaia-bolgheri-doc-rosso","provider":"Peter Maude Fine Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
