Ornellaia - Poggio alle Gazze 2021

 Gazing towards the Mediterranean and deeply rooted in the identity of Ornellaia, Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia reveals a refreshing spirit that is delicate like the breeze, while also remaining sumptuous and self-assured.

Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia is one of Italy’s most innovative and progressive white wines, providing an altogether different experience of the Ornellaia estate and its Mediterranean influences.

Blend: 72% Sauvignon Blanc, 16% Vermentino, 12% Viognier & Verdicchio

Olga Fusari – Winemaker: "“Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia 2021 shows off its usual shade of bright straw yellow; the nose is complex and enticing with an array of citrus, exotic fruit and white floral notes accompanied by freshly cut grass and asparagus. On the palate, the wine is generous and refreshing, culminating in an enduring savoury, mineral finish as a true representation of the region.”

"A reimagination of the classic Bordeaux white blend, Poggio alla Gazze is composed of 72% Sauvignon Blanc, 16% Vermentino, and the rest Viognier and Verdicchio. The 2021 Poggio alla Gazze is vibrant and forward with fresh tropical fruit of guava or papaya, salted grapefruit, and lime blossom. It is medium bodied but round, without any harsh edges. It has a chalky texture, with pithy citrus and more tropical notes as well as saline earth." - 92 points, Jeb Dunnuck
