Robert Parker (RP) : 92 Points (2017)
Lots of big, dark fruit and a lack of water in the grapes define the unique personality of the 2017 Le Volte dell'Ornellaia. This is a highly extracted and succulent expression that delivers abundant fruit sweetness. The key to this vintage was waiting for proper ripeness, says estate manager and winemaker Axel Heinz. "The grapes continued to get smaller throughout the summer," he says. That lack of water resulted in very concentrated fruit, giving this entry-level wine a rich and modern feel as a result.

James Suckling (JS) : 91 Points (2017)
An opulent Le Volte with ripe redcurrants, caramelized orange peel and lilacs on the nose. Medium body, fine but round tannins and a fruit-driven finish. Drink now.

Wine Spectator (WS) : 92 Points (2016)
Black currant, blackberry and mint aromas and flavors mark this firm, linear red. Fruity yet savory, ending with a dense, wide swath of dusty tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. Best from 2021 through 2030.

Vinous (Antonio Galloni) (VN) : 91 Points (2012)
Sweet roses, raspberries, sage, tobacco, underbrush, cinnamon and new leather jump from the glass in the 2012 Le Volte dell'Ornellaia. This is an unusually fresh, vibrant Le Volte with gorgeous energy and focus. Le Volte is now done half in oak and half in concrete, which keeps the flavors lively and fresh. The blend is 50% Merlot, 30% Sangiovese and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Recaredo Terrers 2019
Recaredo Terrers 2019
A bone-dry, traditional-method sparkling from Penedès that champions Xarel·lo with Macabeu, Parellada and a whisper of Monastrell; long lees ageing delivers precision, chalky poise and gastronomic depth.
