✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the prestigious Bolgheri coast in Tuscany, Ornellaia is a cornerstone of the Super Tuscan movement. While renowned for its flagship Bordeaux-style blend, the estate celebrates the unique personality of specific vintages through its 'Vendemmia d'Artista' series, where 'L'Incanto' (The Enchantment) was selected to capture the spellbinding harmony of the estate's terroir. This red wine is crafted from a meticulous selection of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, grown on complex soils of marine, alluvial, and volcanic origin. Blessed by the moderating Mediterranean breezes and intense Tuscan sunlight, the grapes are hand-harvested, individually fermented by parcel, and aged for up to 18 months in French oak barriques, resulting in a wine of extraordinary complexity, structure, and elegance.
