Ornellaia is a blend of nature and musing. Complex ancient soils converse through human wisdom with a delicate microclimate that is echoed and reflected in the Mediterranean Sea. Prolonged ageing accompanies the estate’s fine wine in achieving its utmost expression, revealing finesse and generosity over time.
The wine is intensely hued, a deep, vibrant ruby red that instantly hints at its richness. The expressive nose conveys beguiling ripe blueberry and blackberry aromas, as well as other black fruits, accompanied by elegant, toasted almond and cocoa notes. Mediterranean shrub overtones emerge as the wine evolves in the glass, further accentuating a bouquet of rare complexity. Generous and mouth-filling, the palate is concentrated in addition to being surprisingly plush and delicate, underscored by a vitality that brings energy and momentum to the tasting experience. The body, while powerful, reveals softness, finesse and perfect balance. The wine has an enduring finish, sustained by silky, chiselled tannins that yield richness, flavour and a lasting persistency.
Ornellaia 2023 is the embodiment of an excellent vintage, authentically conveying the strength and harmony of a unique terroir.
ORNELLAIA 2023. LA VITALITÀ
Artist Marina Abramović was invited to interpret the character of the 2023 vintage for the Vendemmia d’Artista project. In addition to creating a site-specific work, he styled a series of large-format bottles with her art. Furthermore, for the Bordeaux bottle, the artist designed a limited-edition label alongside the traditional label. One “La Vitalità” artistic label can be found in every case containing six 750ml bottles of Ornellaia 2023.
