Made with 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the Ornellaia 2022 Bolgheri Bianco Ornellaia reflects a hotter vintage through a broader, more opulent expression, offering honeyed tones, stone fruit, cantaloupe melon and a distinctly yellow-fruited profile with notable richness and viscosity. Sourced from rocky limestone soils with clay lying deep underground, the wine is released three years after harvest to allow the variety to move beyond its initial phase of youthful fragrance and exuberance, though in this vintage, the overall impression remains dense and somewhat static in my view. The wine has gone from being an IGT Toscana to a Bolgheri Bianco.
