The wine in this vintage

A rainy spring and a summer of moderate temperatures characterised 2018, a vintage that rewarded careful Tuscan producers with elegant, fresh and aromatically clear wines. Ornellaia 2018 has a harmonious, refined profile: blackcurrant, cherry, raspberry, violet, cedar and a touch of pepper, with a fine tannic weave and lovely tension on the palate. The finish is long, savoury and clean. Decanter, James Suckling and Antonio Galloni all rated it 97 points. Rather than power, this vintage is about grace and balance: it is already enjoyable today and can keep refining in bottle for many years to come.

The producer · Tenuta dell'Ornellaia

Founded in 1981 by Lodovico Antinori in Bolgheri, on the Livorno coast, Tenuta dell'Ornellaia became within a few decades one of the international symbols of Italian wine. The first vintage of Ornellaia was 1985; since 2005 the estate has been wholly owned by the Frescobaldi family, who have consolidated its style and global reputation. The vineyards spread across the hills and plain of Bolgheri, on a patchwork of alluvial, sandy and clay soils tempered by Tyrrhenian breezes and day-night temperature swings. Ornellaia is a blend of Bordeaux varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, marrying Mediterranean generosity with classic structure. Alongside it, Masseto, a pure Merlot from the hill of the same name with its Pliocene blue clays, is now run as a separate entity and complemented by Massetino, introduced with the 2017 vintage. Since 2009 the Vendemmia d'Artista project has paired each vintage with a contemporary artwork.
