Tasting Notes
As a young vintage, 2023 is expected to show a deep, vivid color with excellent concentration and freshness. Aromas typically move from ripe dark berries and plum toward graphite, Mediterranean herbs, spice, and subtle toasted oak, with the blend bringing both structure and plushness. On the palate, Ornellaia is known for its layered, full-bodied style, combining polished tannins, bright acidity, and a long, persistent finish. This wine is built for cellaring and should develop beautifully over many years, gaining nuance, complexity, and even greater harmony with age.

Production
The grapes come from Ornellaia’s estate vineyards in Bolgheri, where Tuscany’s coastal influence, warm sunlight, and cooling maritime breezes create ideal conditions for Bordeaux varieties. The estate is known for careful parcel selection and selective harvesting, ensuring each grape variety is picked at optimal ripeness. Vinification is carried out with a focus on precision and balance to preserve fruit purity, structure, and aromatic complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with premium red meats, game, slow-braised dishes, truffle pasta, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open fully and show its depth.
