What is this wine?
Tenuta dell’Ornellaia’s Bolgheri Superiore “Ornellaia” 2017 (Magnum) is one of Italy’s most celebrated Bordeaux-style blends, produced on the Tuscan coast near Bolgheri. The 2017 vintage blends Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot from the estate’s sustainably farmed vineyards on sandy-clay and limestone soils. Fermented in small stainless-steel tanks and aged 18 months in French oak (about 70% new), Ornellaia captures the elegance and power that define this iconic estate.

Why get this wine?
Ornellaia is a global benchmark for modern Italian luxury reds, known for depth, polish, and impeccable balance. The 2017 vintage—shaped by warm, dry conditions—yielded small, concentrated berries, producing a wine of richness and poise. In magnum, it matures more gracefully, amplifying the vintage’s supple texture and dark-fruited intensity. A true collector’s bottle, built for decades of evolution.

What does this wine taste like?
Deep and refined, with aromas of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate, accented by graphite, spice, and balsamic notes. The palate is full-bodied and layered, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, elegant finish.

When should you drink this wine?
Best from 2026–2045. Decant for 2–3 hours if opened young. Perfect with roast lamb, aged beef, or truffle dishes.

"A stunning wine, the 2017 Ornellaia offers a captivating interplay of richness and energy. Picking early was the key. Young vine Cabernet Sauvignon and Franc were harvested in August for the first time ever. In the glass, the 2017 offers up an enticing mélange of mocha, cedar, tobacco and licorice, with soft curves that add to its sensuality and allure. The 2017 is sumptuous and racy, as Ornellaias from warmer years tend to be, but it is not at all heavy or overdone. In a word: superb!" -Antonio Galloni

"This vintage of Ornellaia is called Solare and represents the 12th edition in the estate's Vendemmia d'Artista series featuring artwork by Tomás Saraceno. His beautiful art depicts a radiant sun halo and is intended as a symbol of sustainability. That theme of sunshine and warmth is particularly well suited to a vintage such as this. The Ornellaia 2017 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia is generous and fruit-forward with dense richness and concentration all driven by the smaller and more compact berry size that characterizes this dry, hot growing season. Black and purple fruits segue to spice, tobacco, leather and some of those beautiful Mediterranean notes of black olive and wild sage. These various moving pieces work together in perfect harmony. The tannins are beautifully managed here. If you consider the more astringent and rougher approach of the mid-tier Le Serre Nuove dell'Ornellaia, this wine shows a whole other level of magnificent tannic management that could not have been easy given the diminutive berry size. This vintage sees a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot and 9% Cabernet Franc. The vineyard soils are characterized by reddish sand with calcareous rock. The wine is fermented in both stainless steel and cement and is transferred over to barrique to finish malolactic fermentation." -Monica Larner
