Hailing from the prestigious Bolgheri region on the Tuscan coast, 'Infinito' is famously associated with Ornellaia's celebrated 'Vendemmia d'Artista' series—specifically the 2011 vintage, which celebrated the concept of infinity. This flagship red represents the pinnacle of Super Tuscan winemaking, blending Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Born from maritime-influenced soils of alluvial clay, sand, and gravel, the grapes are hand-harvested, micro-vinified by parcel, and aged for around 18 months in French oak barriques. The wine embodies the estate's philosophy of harmony and limitless aging potential, capturing the essence of the Mediterranean breeze and the sun-drenched Tuscan hills in a structured, elegant, and deeply complex profile.
