The Cabernet varieties show a lovely raspberry quality this year, the whole is lifted and delicately perfumed with crisp red fruits and rose petals while the Merlot and Petit Verdot bring darker, softer blueberry and blackberry. Le Volte is always a nicely balanced and elegant taster of coastal Tuscany greatness, the 2023 offers lovely freshness and elegance, with fine silky tannins and a pleasing turn of earth, crushed stones and mediterranean herbs. 13.5% vol. Drink 2025-2035.

Ornellaia

Founded by Lodovico Antinori, the estate broke away from Tuscany’s preference for Sangiovese, instead planting Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot with the aim of producing "Super-Tuscan" Bordeaux-styled blends.

There are 30 ha of vineyards planted on sand and clay, with the average vine age of just over fifteen years. The first vintage of Ornellaia was 1985, and since then Ornellaia has established itself as one of the great Super-Tuscans. The estate has seen a number of shareholders come and go, and is now owned by Frescobaldi.

About En Primeur

Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines

Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
