Tenuta Dell` Ornellaia

Tenuta Dell`Ornellaia

The history of the winery begins with its foundation by the Italian Marchese Lodovico Antinori. This began in 1981 with the construction of the house in Castagneto Carducci, Tuscany, in the province of Livorno. Four years later, in 1985, the foundation stone for the successful, long-standing tradition of enjoyment was laid with the first wine, Ornellaia. After a temporary change of ownership from Lodovico Antinori to Robert Mondavi, the estate is now owned by the Frescobaldi family, who are carefully continuing its success story.

The history of the winery begins with its foundation by the Italian Marchese Lodovico Antinori. This began in 1981 with the construction of the house in Castagneto Carducci, Tuscany, in the province of Livorno. Four years later, in 1985, the foundation stone for the successful, long-standing tradition of enjoyment was laid with the first wine, Ornellaia.

With philosophy to success: Nothing is left to chance here

The Frescobaldi family has in-depth knowledge of viticulture. The winegrowers have accumulated experience over many years, which is carefully passed on from generation to generation within the family. Not least because of their deep roots in the wine industry, the owners live up to the iconic reputation of their estate and continue to write its success story. The focus is on ensuring the excellence of their products. In order to achieve this primary goal, no detail, no matter how small, is left to chance. Careful attention is always paid to harvesting all the grapes in the correct order during the harvest period. The optimal harvest period for the best possible wine can be determined by means of tasting, and the process is continued with the greatest precision even after the harvest. In the course of the double selection process, the grapes are first checked for quality and then cleaned of any remains of their mother plant. The winegrowers categorically reject shortcuts. The grapes are fermented separately in French oak barrels. This ensures that each of the more than 60 base wines allows its character to flow into the assemblage. The final selection of the base wines takes place after the end of the 12-month aging process. The mix is ​​based on two important criteria. These include, on the one hand, the very own character in each vintage and, on the other hand, the expression of unparalleled elegance that is characteristic of Tenuta dell' Ornellaia.

Immerse yourself in the variety of enjoyment of Italian quality wine

To this day, the promising vines grow on more than 90 hectares of cultivation area around Bolgheri. The cultivation area is divided into seven areas: Bellaria Alta, Bellaria, Fontina, Sondraie, Bolgherese, Ornellaia (Forncae) and Ferrugini. Thanks to the proximity to the Mediterranean Sea, the grapes can enjoy fresh breezes even during the particularly hot summer months. The nature of the unique soil makes a significant contribution to the fertility of the region through the complexity of alluvial and marine components as well as volcanic elements. These circumstances favor the great variety of the wine range of Tenuta dell' Ornellaia. Depending on your personal preferences, you can choose between Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. White wine lovers are best served with an elegant Sauvignon Blanc.

Don't be afraid of fakes
