Availability:In stock
Vintage: 2018
Size: 750ml
Ratings: James Suckling 97, Antonio Galloni 97
“With its usual deep ruby-red colour, Ornellaia 2018 features a lively and intense aromatic expression, a distinctive mark of the vintage. Red fruits, citrus notes, hints of liquorice and Mediterranean scrub combine to form its profile. With the first taste it is enveloping and all its components well-balanced: the tannins, both dense and silky in texture, fill the palate with elegance and precision. The finish is lifted by a distinct tangy vein that enhances the sensation of freshness and persistence.”
Purchase a case of 6 to get the Limited edition label - One in each wooden case.

Serving Suggestions
A wine like this requires an equally delicious pairing in the form of grilled, roasted or barbequed pork, chicken, roast and game meat. Would also go well with medium cheeses.
