Ornellaia
Founded by Lodovico Antinori, the estate broke away from Tuscany’s preference for Sangiovese, instead planting Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot with the aim of producing "Super-Tuscan" Bordeaux-styled blends.
There are 30 ha of vineyards planted on sand and clay, with the average vine age of just over fifteen years. The first vintage of Ornellaia was 1985, and since then Ornellaia has established itself as one of the great Super-Tuscans. The estate has seen a number of shareholders come and go, and is now owned by Frescobaldi.
