Description
Ornellaia 2020 La Proporzione: excellence of Bolgheri
Ornellaia 2020 SPECIAL LABEL ‘La Proporzione’ KOSUTH JOSEPH is a great Bolgheri DOC Superiore Rosso signed by Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, an iconic expression of the Tuscan territory and of a refined, deep, and contemporary winemaking style. The blend combines Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot in a wine that focuses on balance, flavor breadth, and great aging potential.
Territory and wine style
It originates in Bolgheri, a renowned area of the Livorno coast where the dialogue between complex soils, Mediterranean microclimate, and natural ventilation contributes to producing wines of strong personality. In this setting, Ornellaia interprets the territory with an elegant and structured imprint, where the maturity of the fruit meets precision, depth, and definition. The 2020 vintage required attention and rigorous selection, elements that are reflected in the clarity of the final profile and in the coherence between power and finesse.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits emerge, accompanied by delicate hints of vanilla and sweet tobacco. The taste is soft and velvety, with a broad and enveloping entry that makes the sip immediately enjoyable. The tannic structure is dense yet elegant, supported by a beautiful savoriness and a long, harmonious persistence. It is a wine of great balance, capable of uniting structure, complexity, and a refined finish.
Recommended pairings
Ornellaia 2020 pairs naturally with important main courses such as beef fillet, grilled rib steaks, game birds, roasted lamb, and braised dishes. It can also accompany preparations with mushrooms, truffles, and structured sauces, as well as aged cheeses of great intensity. Its elegance makes it suitable for a special table service when one wishes to enhance a rich yet balanced cuisine.
Serving temperature
The ideal serving temperature is between 16 and 18°C. To fully appreciate its complexity, it is advisable to open the bottle a little in advance, allowing the wine to breathe in the glass or decanter if necessary. The correct temperature helps to highlight the fruit, the finesse of the tannins, and the aromatic depth.
