2011 Ornellaia Bolgheri DOC Superiore 0,75lt. Limited Edition Gold Label
The 2011 Ornellaia Bolgheri DOC Superiore is a vibrant ruby red wine from a sun-filled, early-maturing vintage. It features rich, ripe fruit aromas with subtle balsamic and toasted notes. On the palate, it delivers impressive concentration and silky tannins, offering a mouth-filling experience without heaviness. The finish is long, spicy, and crisp. This vintage received high ratings: 94 points from Wine Advocate, 96 points from J. Suckling, and 97 points from Vinous. The blend reflects the estate's unique microclimate and ancient soils, achieving finesse and generosity through prolonged aging. The hot, dry 2011 growing season led to an early harvest, resulting in concentrated grapes with balanced ripe tannins and crisp acidity.
Since 2006, Ornellaia has started a tradition in which each vintage is celebrated through a series of limited edition labels, created by contemporary artists. For the 2011 vintage, artist Rodney Graham interpreted "The Infinite", bringing a unique artistic touch to this special edition. The gold label symbolizes the excellence and uniqueness of this vintage, making each bottle a collector's item.
