Ornellaia
Ornellaia is one of Bolgheri’s most important fine wine estates, established in 1981 on the Tuscan coast in Italy. Known for Ornellaia wine, Le Serre Nuove, Le Volte, Poggio alle Gazze and Ornellaia Bianco, the estate produces still red and white wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and selected white varieties. Ornellaia represents one of Italy’s most recognised premium wine names.
Read MoreTasting Note
The nose is highly complex, with acacia honey, peach, quince jam and caramel. The palate is creamy and opulent, balancing residual sweetness with fresh acidity and savoury detail. Full-bodied and richly textured, it remains precise rather than heavy. The finish is long, fresh and distinctive, showing the potential of Petit Manseng in Bolgheri’s mild, breezy autumn conditions.
Food Pairing
Pair with blue cheese, foie gras, tarte Tatin, almond tart, poached pear, aged Comte, panna cotta or honey-led desserts.
