Le Serre Nuove Dell' Ornellaia 2006

Bolgheri, Tuscany, ItalyOrnellaia 'bambino' better known as Le Serre Nuovo is a 50/35/9/6 merlot/cabernet sauvignon/cabernet franc/petit verdot that is every bit up to its big brother Ornellaia. Heaps of spice, tobacco, dried herbs, black olives and a savoury meaty thread suggest it will age for quite a long time and with grace. Rich dense full and powerful it is the year to stock up on the second label. This blend will only get better over the next decade.Tasted: 17 July 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
