2006 Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia

[TheEngineer]

Wow, what a wine. Great QPR at this price. Who really needs the older brother at several X more???

Wine is dense with a nose of black fruits, black cherries, spiciness and a high toned acidity. Wine is very smooth and has a wonderful mouthfeel. It is oaked but wears it well. The lushness of the merlot shows through it has great structure, with smooth tannins and is grippy. Wine has a good length is a wonderful vibrancy that I find in good Italian wines. Very nice wine! If you can, buy two and try one now!
