Tasting Notes

Merlot, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon are fermented separately in small steel tanks to preserve their unique characteristics. The wine is then aged for 10 months in a combination of used Ornellaia barriques and concrete tanks to achieve a balance of tannins and fresh fruit expression.

Product Highlights

Few wineries in the world have a history as rich and influential as Ornellaia. Established by Marchese Lodovico Antinori, it was his bold response to the legendary Sassicaia crafted by his cousin, and Solaia from his brother’s Antinori estate. Aiming to push the boundaries of Italian winemaking, Ornellaia combined Old World heritage with a pioneering spirit, eventually catching the attention of Robert Mondavi, who saw its potential as a world-class producer.

Think of this as Super Tuscan style without the Super Tuscan price tag. A Merlot-dominant blend, with Cabernet Sauvignon and Montepulciano, it’s all about silky texture, dark fruit, and an irresistible freshness. James Suckling 92 point review calls it “firm and silky with bark, berry, chocolate, and light coffee aromas.” A fantastic entry into the world of Ornellaia, offering serious pedigree for a fraction of the price. These are wines that define Tuscany’s modern era, rare, sought after, and destined for the cellar. Secure your bottles before they all disappear.
