Goedhuis, May 2023
Crafted with the same attention to detail as its famed compatriot, the 2021 Le Serre Nuove is a tried-and-tested blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with a drop of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. From morello cherry and blackberry to cinnamon and cloves, the nose is a delightful combination of dark fruits and exotic spices, while the Mediterranean influence is at the forefront of the palate with its mouth-watering black olive. The 2021 Le Serre Nuove is such a serious wine, backed with impressive structure and a core of pristine fruit all the while retaining the vintage’s signature bright acidity and freshness. There is an elegance and poise to this wine that is indicative of a truly superb vintage. Magnificently done. Drink 2025-2035.

Antonio Galloni, August 2023, Score: 94
The 2021 Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia packs a huge punch. Masses of dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate, leather, licorice and cloves saturate the palate. I don't remember a Serre Nuove with this much sheer power and somber intensity, but the balance is there, especially with aeration. It will be interesting to see how the 2021 develops. Today it is quite the powerhouse. Drink 2025-2036.

Wine Advocate, May 2023, Score: 93
The 2021 Bolgheri Rosso Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia is a nicely extracted and rich blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. This vintage is very generous, even opulent, with dark fruit that is framed by exotic spice, baking chocolate and softly toasted tones from French oak. The wine ends on a creamy note with vanilla and cinnamon. The oak needs a few more years to integrate. Drink 2024-2033.
Region
Bolgheri
The medieval town of Bolgheri was originally made famous by the poet Giosuè Carducci who wrote about the stunning Cypress Avenue, a breathtaking and magical three mile long corridor of trees leading up to the entrance to the village. Swept away to the coastal and most westerly area of Tuscany, Bolgheri has become synonymous with wines known as ‘Super Tuscans'. Composed of classic Bordeaux varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc (intermixed with the occasional Sangiovese), the Super Tuscans began as mere experimentation in the 1960s and 70s. These international French varieties flourished in Bolgheri's warm, yet maritime climate which resulted in unexpected success and reknown. It is here that one finds such famous names as Ornellaia, Tignanello and Sassicaia.
