Le Volte Dell’ Ornellaia 2022 75cl

This is the bottle you open when you want your red wine to feel bold, put-together, and a little bit addictive. Le Volte is the more laid-back sibling of the famed Ornellaia wines, made in Tuscany, Italy, and the 2022 vintage brings that signature polish without needing a special occasion.

What makes it worth your time is the balance. You get ripe, dark fruit up front, then layers of savoury herbs, spice, and a gentle oak frame. So it doesn’t just taste “red”, it tastes like a real place, with texture and shape, not a flat fruit bomb.

• From Tuscany, a region that loves structure, so you get a wine that stands up to big flavours and keeps its composure.
• 2022 vintage delivers lively fruit and drink-now charm, so you don’t have to wait years to enjoy it.
• Ornellaia know-how shows up in the fine tannins and tidy finish, so every sip feels intentional, not messy.

Tasting notes, for when you want the play-by-play:

• Appearance: Deep ruby with a darker core, looks rich in the glass.
• Nose: Black cherry, plum, a hint of mocha, dried herbs, and warm spice.
• Taste: Dark berries and cherry, cocoa, a touch of vanilla-oak, fresh acidity to keep it lively, and grippy tannins that feel polished.
• Body: Medium to full-bodied, with a firm, confident structure.
• Finish: Long and savoury, with fruit fading into spice and a gentle espresso note.

If you’re building a home wine lineup, this is the “one step up” red. It’s versatile enough for weeknight cooking, but it still has that layered, Tuscan personality that makes people ask what you poured.

Fun Fact: Ornellaia is part of the Bolgheri scene on Tuscany’s coast, a region that helped make “Super Tuscan” reds famous by focusing on bold blends and serious winemaking outside the old-school rules.
