Cellar - Tenuta Ornellaia

Tenuta Ornellaia is one of Italy's most prestigious and influential wineries, a symbol of the winemaking excellence of the Bolgheri DOC appellation, which extends along the coast of the Maremma region of Tuscany. Founded in 1981 by Ludovico Antinori, a member of the historic Antinori winemaking family, Ornellaia has undergone an incredible international rise, becoming a benchmark for modern viticulture. The estate is located in one of Tuscany's most prestigious winemaking regions, where the Mediterranean microclimate, salty sea breezes, and mineral-rich soil create ideal conditions for growing high-quality grape varieties.

In 2005, the Frescobaldi family, one of Tuscany's most respected winemaking dynasties, acquired the estate, bringing a solid tradition of expertise and innovation. Ornellaia's production philosophy, while remaining closely tied to tradition, is oriented toward innovation and sustainability. The winery is now managed with the goal of preserving the quality of the terroir and local biodiversity, employing sustainable agricultural practices that ensure the utmost respect for the environment.

The estate extends across approximately 95 hectares of vineyards, producing a variety of wines, but is most famous for its flagship wine, "Ornellaia," a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, which has earned international acclaim for its structure and aging potential. Ornellaia's production focuses on carefully selecting grapes from different parcels, each of which imparts unique characteristics to the wine.

The winery, designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, is equipped with modern technologies that enable high-precision winemaking. Ornellaia's winemakers and technical team strive to maintain a perfect balance between tradition and innovation, striving to best express every single detail of the terroir through vinification and barrel aging.

In addition to Ornellaia, the winery produces other top-quality wines, including Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia, a more accessible version of its flagship wine without compromising on quality. Le Serre Nuove is made using the same grapes from the vineyards used for Ornellaia, but from a different selection, and is vinified and aged with the same care and attention as the estate's flagship wine. This second wine perfectly reflects the Bolgheri terroir, with a particular focus on freshness and elegance, making it prized by collectors and wine enthusiasts alike.

The winery is also very committed to sustainability and innovation in the vineyard and cellar. Ornellaia uses organic and biodynamic practices that respect local biodiversity and reduce environmental impact, confirming its commitment to responsible and conscious production.

Attention to detail, meticulous production processes, and the use of cutting-edge winemaking technologies have earned Ornellaia international recognition, cementing its position as one of the most established names in the global winemaking landscape.
