    Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Ornellaia - L'Essenza 2014 is an iconic Bolgheri wine that reflects the Ornellaia winery's DNA in a concentrated, elegant blend. The 2014 vintage benefited from warm days and cool nights, combining ripeness with freshness and fine tannin structures. L'Essenza showcases the distinctive character of this house: a terroir-driven power that combines Bordeaux-inspired finesse with Mediterranean warmth. Critics such as Falstaff, Parker, Jancis Robinson, Jeff Leve, and Wine Spectator regularly praise its depth, complexity, and long finish, without losing balance.

    In the tasting, L'Essenza 2014 displays a rich, velvety texture with intense aromas of dark berries, cassis, dark chocolate, tobacco, and spicy notes; mineral freshness and well-integrated oak contribute to the elegant, long finish. The structure now appears mature, but the wine still has reserves for further years of development, allowing its depth and complexity to unfold further.

    Optimal drinking maturity is expected between 2020 and 2030, with potential for further development beyond that. Food pairing suggestion: Grilled beef fillet or braised lamb, game dishes such as venison or venison, truffle risotto, or mature, soft cheeses – ideal to complement the dense fruit, fine tannins, and salty minerality of this wine.

    LIFE BEFORE...

    Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.

    HIDDEN FEATURES

    Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.

    THE DETAILS MATTER

    We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.

    COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

    Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
