Their dedication to this mission, their passion and the unique luxury climate all go towards producing a terroir that is unique and has led to Tenuta dell Ornellaia being recognized as one of the finest wineries throughout the world.

When starting out Ornellaia knew that in order for the future of Italian viticulture to take a new pathway, the proper place, time and the very best people were needed. Tenuta dell Ornellaia is that place, a place of infinite potential that has been cultivated with experience and the wisdom of artists whose aim is to produce a new luxury masterpiece with every vintage.

A new masterpiece is determined essentially by the nature of the vintage. Grapes are hand harvested when they are full ripe and the individual vineyards are fermented separately. Ornellaia have followed this philosophy since their beginning and the results speak for themselves. Production of their ranges of luxurious wines is based on the belief that all wines are the faithful representation of the terroir from which they came. The smallest of details are considered from selective hand harvesting to the microvinification and the ageing process to ensure quality. Ornellaia Bolgheri DOC Superiore is Ornellaia's flagship wine. It was first produced with the 1985 vintage after very careful selections from the vineyards of the estate. This is a luxurious wine
