Ornellaia: The Vertical

Thursday 8 May 2014

,

The Antinori family are responsible for some of Tuscany’s most prodigious and prestigious wines, and Lodovico Antinori was the man who established Ornellaia – a winery that has gone on to become an Italian legend. From Lodovico’s first vintage in 1985, through a tumultuous takeover by California’s Mondavi family, and now under the ownership of the Frescobaldi family, Tenuta dell’ Ornellaia has continued to produce world class wines of the highest order.

This tasting will take a comprehensive look at all of the estate's wines, including a 5 vintage vertical back to 1990 and a taste of Masseto, Ornellaia's ‘Super’ Super-Tuscan Merlot.

We will taste Poggio Alle Gazze 2011, Variazioni in Rosso 2010, Le Volte 2011, Le Serre Nuove 2010, Masseto 1998, as well as the following Ornellaia: 1990, 1996, 1997, 2004, 2009.
