The Toscana Bianco Ornellaia Bianco di Tenuta dell'Ornellaia is made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes grown in the estate's vineyards in Bolgheri. The harvest is manual and the grapes are selected with great care. Winemaking takes place with fermentation in French oak barriques, followed by a long aging on the yeasts that contributes to structure, complexity and elegance. The wine rests further in the bottle before marketing.
Bright golden yellow color. On the nose it expresses intense notes of ripe citrus, peach, tropical fruit and white flowers, accompanied by hints of vanilla, butter and light toasted nuances. On the palate it is rich and enveloping, with a great balance between freshness, softness and flavour, and a long, elegant and persistent finish.
White of great structure and prestige, ideal for important occasions. It pairs with shellfish, noble fish, elaborate white meats and haute cuisine dishes.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a serving temperature of 10/12°C.
