Ornellaia

OOrnellaia Winery was established in 1981, in the region of Bolgheir, Toscana, Italy. Long considered one of Italy's leaders in producing premium Bordeaux-style red wines, the estate was originally owned and operated by the Antinori family - with the help of legendary winemaker Tibo Gal. The brand released its first vintage in 1985 and grew in popularity throughout Italy and internationally. Catching the attention of the prestigious Robert Mondavi Winery, Ornellaia came under the ownership of Mondavi in 2002, with an interest controlled by the Frescobaldi family. Frescobaldi soon took control of the entire estate in 2005 and recruited the expertise of wine master Axel Heinz and oenologist Michel Rolland. Building on this extraordinary foundation, Ornellaia Winery offers several award-winning varietals, including its signature Orenllaia Bolgheri Superiore Rosso, the Le Serre Nuove Dell'Ornellaia Rosso, and bottlings of both Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon blends.
