Ornellaia: A World-Class Bolgheri Superiore DOC

T.D'ELL ORNELLAIA ORNELLAIA is the legendary wine from Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, a true 'Super Tuscan' masterpiece from the sun-drenched coast of Tuscany. This Bordeaux-style blend (predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) perfectly captures the richness of the Bolgheri terroir, delivering a wine of immense depth, complexity, and finesse.

Tasting Notes (Typical Profile)

• Appearance: Deep, saturated ruby red.
• Aroma: Rich and captivating. The nose offers profound dark fruit concentration (black cherry, cassis, damson plum), overlaid with sophisticated notes of black pepper, liquorice, and a hint of Mediterranean scrub and tobacco.
• Taste: Powerful yet graceful. The palate is full and round, supported by wonderfully integrated, fine-grained tannins. It is concentrated and structured, with a long, fresh, and mineral-driven finish that speaks to its aging potential.

Serving Suggestion

A wine of this calibre benefits greatly from aeration. We recommend decanting for at least two hours and serving slightly below room temperature (16-18°C).

• Food Pairings: Traditional Roast Lamb with Garlic and Rosemary, Venison Loin with Redcurrant Jus, Beef Wellington, Aged Hard Cheeses.
