✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1981 by Marchese Lodovico Antinori and guided today under the stewardship of the Frescobaldi family with Technical Director Marco Balsimelli, Ornellaia stands as a pillar of coastal Tuscan viticulture. Situated near Bolgheri along the Tyrrhenian seaboard, the estate commands around 100 hectares of meticulously mapped vineyards. Soils reflect a mosaic of marine gravel, clay, loam, and limestone, nourished by generous maritime sunlight and tempered by cooling coastal breezes sweeping down from the Colline Metallifere. Viticulture adheres to rigorous sustainable standards, certified through Equalitas, championing parcel-level diversity and biodiversity. Ornellaia's winemaking philosophy centers on precise vinification of individual micro-plots in stainless steel and concrete before barrel maturation in fine-grained French oak. The estate's namesake grand vin, Bolgheri DOC Superiore Ornellaia, blends Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot with structural nobility and opulence, alongside benchmark bottlings such as Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia, Poggio alle Gazze, and the legendary single-vineyard Merlot, Masseto.
