The inexpensive 1995 La Volte is a straightforward, fruity, supple-styled wine that offers honest cherry fruit in a medium-bodied format. The color is an attractive dark ruby/purple, and the wine is soft and refreshing. It is ideal for drinking over the next 2-3 years.
The Marchese Lodovico Antinori makes these luxuriously fruity, rich wines from his vineyards in Bolgheri, an area not far from the famed Sassicaia. With the help of Bordeaux's brilliant oenologist, Michel Rolland, these wines seem to be going from strength to strength.
