This is the 2021 Le Serre Nuove dellâOrnellaia. For those in the know, Ornellaia is one of the founding âSuper Tuscansâ out of Bolgheri, Italyâhighly collectible and deeply expensive.
But Le Serre Nuove is their second wine. Here is why itâs an absolute cheat code:
đ Same Terroir: Grown on the same prestigious estate in maritime Tuscany.
đˇ Same Craftsmanship: Handcrafted by the exact same elite winemaking team.
đ° Fraction of the Price: You get a massive portion of the complexity, structure, and plush Merlot-Cabernet character of the flagship bottle, but itâs ready to drink right now without needing to cellar it for a decade.
The 2021 vintage is incredibly expressiveâplush blackberries, fresh wild herbs, vanilla, and a velvety finish that lingers.
