Tasting Notes For Ornellaia 2021

On the nose, it reveals a rich bouquet of blackberries, dark cherries, and cassis, intertwined with hints of cedar, tobacco, and a touch of violet. The palate is opulent yet refined, with velvety tannins and a full-bodied structure that balances power and grace. Layers of dark fruit flavors are complemented by notes of dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of spice, all seamlessly integrated. The wine’s acidity provides a vibrant lift, leading to a long, lingering finish marked by a subtle minerality and a whisper of balsamic.

Critic Ratings
The Ornellaia 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia offers an extra layer of richness, generosity and plushness that shapes a very open-knit and exuberant Tuscan red. The blend is 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot. You feel the fruit and oak weight of the wine, the extract and the 15% alcohol content. All of these elements come together to big effect. From that power, you get black cherry, dark fruit, sweet spice and barbecue smoke. The fruit tannins are young, and this edition of Ornellaia proves worthy for medium or long-term drinking, especially as it softens up with more bottle age.
