The 2019 vintage was characterized like few by highly variable weather, alternating periods of cold and rain with long dry and hot spells. After a normal winter, sprouting occurred in the first week of April. Cold and rainy conditions throughout April and May significantly slowed vegetative development, leading to flowering as much as 10 days later than average. June suddenly brought very warm and rain-free weather with temperature peaks of 37°C reached at the end of the month. Throughout the summer, the weather remained warm and sunny with temperatures as much as 2°C above average and 45 consecutive days without rain. In the last week of July, the long dry spell was interrupted by two days of rain, allowing the temperature to return to the seasonal norm, with ideal conditions for ripening. The harvest began slowly on September 5. As usual, the last week of September saw a drop in temperatures that allowed for the preservation of great aromatic finesse and freshness. After another rain event after September 21, sunny conditions returned, allowing us to conclude the harvest of the later grape varieties on October 4.
VINIFICATION AND AGING
Harvesting was done by hand in 15-kg crates, and the grapes were sorted on a double sorting table before and after destemming and subjected to a soft crushing at the end. In 2016, optical sorting was introduced in addition to manual sorting to further increase the quality of sorting. Each variety and each plot was vinified separately. Alcoholic fermentation took place partly in stainless steel vats, partly in concrete vats at temperatures between 26 and 30°C for one week, which was followed by maceration for about 15 days, for a total stay in tanks of about three weeks. Malolactic fermentation took place mainly in oak barrels (70% new and 30% second-passage). The wine remained in barriques in Ornellaia’s temperature-controlled cellar for a period of about 18 months. After the first 12 months it was blended, then reintroduced into the barriques, where it spent another 6 months. The wine stays in the bottle for 12 months before introduction to the market.

NOTES FROM THE WINEMAKER
“Intense ruby red in color, Ornellaia 2019 is characterized on the nose by intriguing spicy and balsamic notes, including scents of black pepper, sage and herbs. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, yet vibrant and fills the palate with its dense and elegant tannic texture, which closes in a lingering, beautifully crisp finish.”
Olga Fusari – Enologist – July 2021
