2021 Ornellaia Bolgheri DOC, dry, 14.5% vol., Ornellaia

The intense ruby red of the 2020 Ornellaia reveals notes of ripe berries and light hints of vanilla and sweet tobacco on the nose. The wine has a velvety texture and a pleasant, enveloping mouthfeel that invites a second sip. Its dense yet elegant tannin structure supports the flavorful, beautifully persistent finish. 98 points Wine Spectator, 96 points Parker.
