Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (93)Grabs you from the first moment your nose hovers over the glass. Smudged charcoal runs into raspberry, underbrush and mandarin orange peel that speaks of Tuscan sun. Excellent quality, good persistency in the glass as it stretches out through the palate. Everything feels in balance, and this provides another indicator that 2020 is a great vintage in this corner of Italy - Le Volte is (almost) 100% Merlot but has freshness and nuance.

Wine Advocate (92)This is a blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. In this hot vintage, the Merlot was slightly reduced. The Ornellaia 2022 Le Volte dell'Ornellaia remains a plush and accessible Tuscan red. Harvest time saw lower yields on average, with smaller berries and greater fruit concentration. This wine matures in used oak passed down from the top-shelf wines. There is blackberry and dark cherry with sweet spice. |

Jeb Dunnuck (93)The 2023 Le Volte Dell'Ornellaia is a saturated red/ruby color and is a blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot, raised in used barrels for around 10 months. Always a wine leaning into the fruity and approachable side of things, the nose is fruity and fresh with aromas of candied flowers, crushed raspberries, red apples, and fresh stony earth. Medium to full-bodied, it’s very elegant with a joyful ease. It’s a great snapshot into these wines, which are mighty tasty now and have a lot of character. Drink 2025-2035. |

Wine Advocate (93)The 2015 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia is a dark, exuberant and opulent wine that is teeming with flavor, ripeness and extract. That said, there is also a note of impurity that I only really locked in on when I went back to taste the wine at different time intervals later in the day and the next. To be clear, it was there upon first examination, but then it blew off. And then it came back. That game of hide and seek proved distracting and puzzling. I wondered if it was cork or barrel, although it did not behave like any of those things, and my doubt is recorded by the question mark next to my score. Once you get past that little blemish, you are instantly aware of the beauty and depth of the vintage. The wine is savory in terms of aromas and sweet in terms of tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon flavors of dried blackberry, toasted espresso and cured tobacco play leading roles. |

From the hands of acclaimed wine-grower André Ostertag, this organic and biodynamically-farmed wine is expertly crafted from hand-picked grapes grown on the south-east facing slopes of the Zellberg vineyard. Unique to its geographical origin, this masterpiece stands out with its refined balance of supple roundness, subtle minerality, and vibrant acidity. Displaying a vivid gold hue, the Ostertag Pinot Gris Zellberg 2010 unveils a fragrant bouquet of white peach, pear, honeycomb, and a delicate hint of smoke. On the palate, it conjures underlying nuances of spiced apple, almond, and lingering stony minerality — a testament to the complexity achieved from schist, sandstone, and granite soils.

Vinous (92+)Light-medium yellow. Vibrant, precise aromas of lime, lemon drop, mint oil, white flowers and botanical herbs. Dense, tactile and dry, conveying a strong impression of inner-mouth energy and dusty stony extract. The wine's palate-coating texture and beautifully integrated acidity prevent it from coming off as hard. But this very long grand cru riesling really merits at least seven or eight years of cellaring. Just a touch of sweetness on the back end. A superb vintage for this cuvee |

On the palate it is elegant, with beautiful silky texture, sophisticated structure and a long, refreshing finish. |
