Merchant's description

Ornus dell`Ornellaia 2011 is a late-harvest dessert wine from the prestigious Ornellaia estate in Tuscany, Italy. Crafted primarily from Sauvignon Blanc and carefully selected Sémillon, this wine reflects the unique terroir of its small vineyard. The grapes are harvested late in the season, allowing them to develop complex flavours under the Mediterranean sun. Ornellaia was founded by Lodovico Antinori in 1981, establishing itself as a benchmark for Tuscan wines. The vineyard`s sandy soils and proximity to the coastal climate contribute to the wine`s distinctive character, making it a quintessential expression of the region.
