With the Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia Le Serre Nuove Bolgheri Rosso 2018 1.5 l Magnum, a first-class red wine finds its way into the swirling glass. It reveals a wonderfully dense, purple-red color. After the first swirl, this red wine reveals high viscosity, which shows in the church windows on the glass wall. Poured into a red wine glass, this red wine from Italy displays wonderfully expressive aromas of blueberry, blackcurrant, mulberry and blackberry, rounded off by oriental spices, gingerbread spice and cinnamon contributed by the barrel aging.

On the palate, Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia’s Le Serre Nuove Bolgheri Rosso 2018 1.5 l Magnum starts off pleasantly aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. On the palate, the texture of this powerful red wine presents itself as wonderfully meaty and dense. On the finish, this age-worthy red wine from the wine-growing region of Tuscany delights with lovely length. Once again, nuances of blackcurrant and blueberry appear.
