The Winery
Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia
Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia is a Super-Tuscan estate established in 1981 by the celebrated Antinori family. The estate’s 200 planted acres along the Tuscan coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea produce some of Italy’s most superior Bordeaux style varietals including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Ornellaia has developed into one of Italy’s most interesting, exciting and collectable wines. Their philosophy of “quality without compromise” is expressed through the entire winemaking process, attention is paid to every detail, from hand harvesting to the aging process. Ornellaia wines are complex, balanced, and intriguing.
Tasting Notes
- JS94
- Plenty of blackberry and rust with tile and stone undertones. Full body, tannic and structured. A big and flavorful red. Better in 2020 when it is a little softer.
- WA93
- This is a stunning and exuberant wine that drinks with beautiful intensity and personality. The 2015 Bolgheri Rosso Le Serre Nuove dell`Ornellaia is made with fruit from the estate`s young vines. Fruit from the older vines is instead directed to the top-shelf expressions. If this wine is any indication of what we can expect from the next vintage of Ornellaia to hit the market, we are in for a very special treat. This is a complete and richly concentrated expression that drinks with seamless intensity. It pits power against elegance with confidence and grace.
