Description: | Though Ornellaia entered the Super-Tuscan field later than Sassicaia and Solaia, Ornellaia made up for lost time with global impact, and today, Ornellaia's flagship and other wines are hot commodities on the fine wine market. Ornellaia's 244 acres sit in Bolgheri, just a few miles from the Tyrrhenian Sea, and the estate's holdings are split between two parcels, a 100-acre parcel located in a natural bowl near the state-of-the-art cantina and the remaining acres in the Bellaria subzone closer to the sea. This assortment of microclimates, supported by soils that range from stony to clayey to loamy, offers ideal growing conditions to its predominantly Bordeaux-style grape varietals. Since 2005, the Frescobaldi family has owned and operated Ornellaia, and Axel Heinz has served as the company's chief winemaker, running the Ornellaia operation with a painstaking eye for detail and dedication to his craft. |
