On the palate, the wine is vibrant and beautifully structured, offering juicy red fruit, refreshing acidity, and refined, elegant tannins. Its impressive concentration is balanced by freshness and precision, leading to a long, harmonious finish with lingering fruit and savory complexity.
An outstanding expression of Bolgheri's coastal terroir, Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia 2024 delivers the unmistakable character of Ornellaia in a wine that is both approachable in its youth and capable of graceful evolution in the cellar.
Expert Rating
94 Points James Suckling: A spicy wine with aromas of cloves, toast, restrained dark fruit, balsamic and a hint of eucalyptus. Quite full-bodied with refreshing acidity and velvety tannins that are firm, extracted and grainy yet sweet. Tight, muscular yet savory finish. Very tasty.
