Ornellaia 2021
- 750 ml bottle
Product details
[The 'La Generosità' label was designed by Marinella Senatore for the 16th edition of Ornellaia.] The 2021 Ornellaia captures all the magic of this sensational vintage on the Tuscan Coast. Rich, ample and expansive, with tremendous polish, the 2021 is pure class. Dark-toned fruit, mocha, espresso, licorice, plum and dried herbs abound. The tannins are present but also beautifully integrated, as is the French oak. There was a time not too long ago when young wines here needed years in bottle to drink well. That's not at all the case with the 2021. The blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot works so well. New oak was 70%. Drinking window: 2027-2051. Score - 99. (vinous.com, Feb. 13, 2024)
