🏰 The 2020 vintage in Bolgheri, Tuscany, was characterized by a mild and rainy winter, followed by a hot and dry summer, with crucial rains in mid-August that allowed for optimal ripening. Estate director Axel Heinz chose "La Proporzione" (The Proportion) to represent the 2020 Ornellaia, signifying a perfect relationship where each grape variety contributed significantly. This Bolgheri Superiore DOC is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Tasting notes describe a deep ruby red color, with ripe red fruits, delicate vanilla, and gentle tobacco notes on the nose. The palate is rounded and velvety, with dense yet elegant tannins, a concentration of black fruits, and a savory, enduring finish with hints of crushed stone and flinty minerality. Critics highlight its balance, depth, and clarity, with some noting it's a powerful and concentrated wine showing signs of a warm vintage, yet with an elegant balance thanks to fine acidity. 🍴 This prestigious Super Tuscan is a superb match for rich, flavorful dishes. Ideal pairings include roasted beef, lamb, game (deer, venison), or hearty pasta dishes with robust sauces. Its complexity and structure also complement aged hard cheeses. 🥂 Ornellaia "La Proporzione" 2020 is perfect for a grand celebration, a significant corporate event, or as a centerpiece for a fine wine tasting. Its immense cellar potential through 2046 also makes it an exceptional gift for discerning collectors. 【Pinnacle of Italian winemaking】
