Bolgheri Superiore DOC, Tuscany, Italy
Tenuta dell’Ornellaia 2021 is a refined and beautifully structured Super Tuscan, embodying elegance, balance, and the distinctive character of the Bolgheri terroir.
Produced from carefully selected vineyard parcels along the Tuscan coast, Ornellaia is a Bordeaux-style blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The maritime climate and diverse soils contribute to both richness and freshness.
The 2021 vintage is considered outstanding, offering exceptional precision, concentration, and harmony. Aged in French oak, the wine achieves remarkable depth while maintaining clarity and balance.
The nose is complex and expressive, with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum, layered with notes of cedar, graphite, spice, and subtle floral hints.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and refined, with a dense core of dark fruit supported by polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Nuances of cocoa, tobacco, and mineral undertones add depth and sophistication.
The finish is long, elegant, and persistent, with lingering notes of fruit, spice, and refined oak.
