Semi-concealed in the foothills near Bolgheri, just a few kilometers from the Mediterranean coast is where Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore is made.
Comprised of 51% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot grapes that were hand-picked and then selected by hand on a double sorting table, before and after destemming, and finally softly crushed.
With the first taste it is enveloping and all its components well-balanced: the tannins, both dense and silky in texture, fill the palate with elegance and precision. The finish is lifted by a distinct tangy vein that enhances the sensation of freshness and persistence.
Notes: Dry, full-bodied. Aromas and flavors of mocha, cedar, tobacco and licorice
Pairings: Ossobuco, steamed mussels, chocolate ganache
Serving Suggestions: Room temperature
Region: Italy
Alcohol Content: 14%
