Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore DOC La Proporzione 2020 is an extraordinary expression of the winemaking art from Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, located in the renowned Bolgheri wine region in Tuscany. This exclusive wine is crafted from a carefully selected blend of Bordeaux varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, and represents one of the highest expressions of the estate's quality and complexity. The name "La Proporzione" reflects the harmony and balance that this wine achieves. The hand-harvested grapes ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and then age for about 18 months in French oak barriques. After the wood aging, the wine continues to develop in the bottle to ensure perfect integration of flavors and rich complexity.
