New release of one of Italy's most iconic wines, Ornellaia. Limited.

98 Points Wine Spectator: "An intense red, defined by lively acidity and framed by dense, ripe tannins that showcase its black currant, blackberry, violet and toasty oak aromas and flavors. Iron and wild herb accents emerge as this plays out on the finish. Though expressive at this stage, this youthful version should benefit from time in bottle. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2027 through 2046. 2,300 cases imported.
                                    
96 Points Robert Parker: "The Ornellaia 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia offers an extra layer of richness, generosity and plushness that shapes a very open-knit and exuberant Tuscan red. The blend is 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot. You feel the fruit and oak weight of the wine, the extract and the 15% alcohol content. All of these elements come together to big effect. From that power, you get black cherry, dark fruit, sweet spice and barbecue smoke. The fruit tannins are young, and this edition of Ornellaia proves worthy for medium or long-term drinking, especially as it softens up with more bottle age."

Ornellaia, the iconic Bolgheri estate renowned for its Super Tuscan blends, presents the exceptional 2021 vintage. This Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant wine reflects the estate's unique maritime terroir and commitment to excellence. The vintage offers intense aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and hints of Mediterranean herbs and spice. The palate is full-bodied yet elegant, with velvety tannins and a long, complex finish showcasing dark fruit, licorice, and a touch of minerality. Pair this prestigious wine with a Ribeye or Porterhouse steak, game birds, or aged cheeses for a truly unforgettable experience.
