ORNUS
DELL'ORNELLAIA
DELL'ORNELLAIA
Toscana IGT Bianco
‘Fraxinus Ornus’ is the Latin name for Orniello. Ornellaia is named after this ancient Mediterranean plant and has also bestowed the epithet on this dessert wine. Ornus dell’Ornellaia is made from late-harvested grapes grown in a tiny vineyard. Time, experience and meditation.
Winemaker's notes
“Ornus dell’Ornellaia 2010 displays more northerly yet typical Petit Manseng tones. The fruity aromas include citrus and lemon peel alongside mineral nuances. The sugar content on the palate is balanced by a lively acidity and a long mineral finish.”
