“The 2021 Ornellaia captures all the magic of this sensational vintage on the Tuscan Coast. Rich, ample and expansive, with tremendous polish, the 2021 is pure class. Dark-toned fruit, mocha, espresso, licorice, plum, and dried herbs abound. The tannins are present but also beautifully integrated, as the French oak. There was a time not too long ago when young wines needed years in bottle to drink well. That’s not the case with the 2021. The blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot works so well. New oak was 70%. Drinking window: 2027 - 2051” –

Ornellaia is born where nature and mind meet. Complex ancient soils converse through the medium of human
wisdom with a delicate microclimate that is echoed and reflected in the Mediterranean Sea. Prolonged ageing
accompanies the estate’s fine wine in achieving its utmost expression, revealing all its finesse and generosity over
time.


TASTING NOTES
53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot Alc. : 15 % v
Ornellaia 2021 displays the characteristics of a typical vintage in Bolgheri, with not a few sunny spells and devoid of rain,
crafting a rich and concentrated wine that is also deeply expressive and generous. Signature notes of Mediterranean shrub,
herbs, cypress berries, classic blackberry and dark fruit aromas unfurl on the nose, accompanying a palate endowed with
dense tannins but certainly not lacking in precision and finesse. The finish is vibrant and enduring, bringing a feeling of
aromatic freshness and elegance.
