3-bottle Value pack Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Le Volte

Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Le Volte – Tenuta dell'Ornellaia (Italy, Tuscany)
Tenuta dell'Ornellaia is one of the most famous estates in Tuscany. Le Volte is the wine there that takes entry-level seriously: a cuvée of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. The Sangiovese brings freshness and volume, the Cabernet structure, and the Merlot melt-in-the-mouth quality. It is fermented in steel tanks, then the wine matures for ten months in barriques. This gives it depth without weighing it down.

In the glass, sour cherry and elderberry appear, along with dark chocolate and a hint of cedar wood. The tannins are silky, the fruit remains present. A red wine with its own character and not a second choice.

The advantage of three bottles: You can experience the wine at your leisure on different occasions, for example once with pasta, once with meat, and once on its own in the evening. In doing so, you will learn how versatile it is at the table. Serving temperature: 16 to 18 °C. Open half an hour beforehand or decant briefly.

Goes with: Pappardelle with wild boar ragout, grilled beef fillet with rosemary, Bistecca alla Fiorentina, lamb chops with thyme, or aged Pecorino Toscano.

Three bottles of Le Volte at a package price: cheaper than bought individually. The pack is suitable as a gift for people who appreciate Tuscan red wines, as a supply for the coming weeks, or as an opportunity to get to know a top estate on the Bolgheri coast in its accessible version.
