Variety: 52% Sangiovese 36% Merlot 12% Cabernet Sauvignon
Vinification and Ageing: To respect the distinctive characteristics of the various varietals, they were vinified separately in small stainless steel tanks.The alcoholic fermentation was followed by malolactic fermentation, again in steel tanks.The wines were then aged 10 months in 2-4 year-old French oak barrels that had already had wine in them for two years, because they were previously used for Masseto and Ornellaia.
The time spent in barrel improves the structure of the wine by softening the tannins, and reducing their aggressiveness.
Le Volte is a selection from Tuscany's best Mediterranean terroirs, a blend of Sangiovese, Tuscany's great autochthonous varietal, with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Winemaker's
Notes: Le Volte embodies the Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia's philosophy, and is a Tuscan wine that speaks the same language (or uses the same words) as Ornellaia. The 2012 vintage presents ample, slightly spicy fruity aromas, and is round and full on the palate, combining Sangiovese's Mediterranean generosity with Cabernet Sauvignon's structure and Merlot's softer notes to make for an extremely pleasant wine.
