Ornellaia Bolgheri Rosso Superiore 2021

The winery's flagship wine, born in 1985, Ornellaia is the result of a careful selection of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot vines grown on the estate.

Colour

Intense ruby red.

Bouquet

The nose offers rich fruit that is fully ripe yet at the same time crisp and lively, underlined by delicate balsamic and toasted notes.

Flavour

On the palate, the powerful concentration immediately impresses, as do the tannins, massive yet silk-smooth and glossy, which allows the wine to completely fill the mouth but with no feeling of heaviness. The finish, near endless, is deliciously pungent and spicy, with a welcome crispness throughout.

Pairing

To pair with red meats, seasoned game or aged cheeses.

Fermentation temperature	26-30 °C
Vinification	Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 26-30 °C for one week, followed by 10-15 days of maceration on the skins. The malolactic fermentation took place primarily in oak barriques, 70% new and 30% once-used.
Ageing	In barriques in the Ornellaia cellar at a controlled temperature for about 18 months. After the first 12 months it was blended and then reintroduced into the barriques where it spent a further 6 months. The wine stayed in the bottle for a further 12 months before release.
