Description

The Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore DOC Magnum 1.5L 2009 is a magnificent wine that offers a seamless and radiant fruit flavour on the palate. Its complexity is highlighted by notes of sweet red berries, mocha, flowers, new leather, and spices, creating a luxurious wine experience. The 2009 vintage stands out with its silky tannins and excellent balance, making it an excellent candidate for long-term aging.

The Tenuta Dell'Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore DOC Magnum comes in a large 1.5-litre bottle, which is twice the size of a standard wine bottle. This size offers several benefits, including a slower aging process due to a smaller air-to-wine ratio. It also allows the wine to develop a more complex and nuanced flavour profile over time, making it a perfect option for collectors and wine enthusiasts. Additionally, the magnum size is visually stunning, making it an impressive centrepiece for special occasions or as a gift for someone special.

To enhance the preservation of the wine, the winemaker Axel Heinz used the highest percentage of Cabernet Franc ever in Ornellaia, and gave the wine less time in oak during the 2009 vintage. This approach aimed to maintain freshness in the wine and increase its aging potential, resulting in a wine that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
