Bolgheri Superiore 750ml

Bottle size

Introducing this pristine 2014 bottling of Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore from one of Italy’s top Tuscany wineries; a succulent, full-bodied red wine with a surprising pop of citrus! Remarked by world-renowned wine critic James Suckling as being outstanding for the vintage, 2014 Ornellaia Bolgheri features a blend of 4 highly-select Tuscan varietals – 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 20% Petit Verdot, and 14% Cabernet Franc – and has maceration period of 10-15 days. Matured for a minimum of 18 months in 70% new/30% refill oak barrels, this tantalizing super-Tuscan wine undergoes assembling after the first 12 months of aging and is then re-barreled for the final 6 months. After bottling, 2014 Ornellaia Bolgheri is rested for another 12 months before being released, allowing for a well-tempered yet hyper-refined finish. On the nose are simmering layers of toasted wood, smoke, and tobacco lightened with hits of sweet cassis and citrus. These complement a palate of fresh cherries, pepper, and old-fashioned licorice twists.…

About the brand

OOrnellaia Winery was established in 1981, in the region of Bolgheir, Toscana, Italy. Long considered one of Italy's leaders in producing premium Bordeaux-style red wines, the estate was originally owned and operated by the Antinori family - with the help of legendary winemaker Tibo Gal. The brand released its first vintage in 1985 and grew in popularity throughout Italy and internationally. Catching the attention of the prestigious Robert Mondavi Winery, Ornellaia came under the ownership of Mondavi in 2002, with an interest controlled by the Frescobaldi family. Frescobaldi soon took control of the entire estate in 2005 and recruited the expertise of wine master Axel Heinz and oenologist Michel Rolland. Building on this extraordinary foundation, Ornellaia Winery offers several award-winning varietals, including its signature Orenllaia Bolgheri Superiore Rosso, the Le Serre Nuove Dell'Ornellaia Rosso, and bottlings of both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blends.
