The 13th Century Ormanni estate is located in the heart of Chianti, between the towns of Poggibonsi and Castellina in Chianti. Proof of the heritage of this Tuscan property can be found in Dante Alighieri’s “Divina Commedia,” where the Ormanni family is mentioned. For the last 200 years the estate has been owned by the Brini Batacchi family, and it is Paolo Brini Batacchi and his daughter, Paola, who run the winery today.The Ormanni property covers an area of 242 ha of land, 68 of which are vineyards dedicated principally to the cultivation of Sangiovese.
2021 Ormanni Chianti DOCG
The Ormanni Chianti and Chianti Classico are sincere, soil-driven wines, expressive of the Barberino Val d’Elsa area, where Sangiovese takes on a brooding, austere character, while still maintaining a generous, fruity core. The Chianti DOCG is fresh, with aromas of violets and red fruits such as cherries and wild strawberries. Light to medium bodied, with delicate tannins and a fragrant acidity.
2021 Ormanni Chianti Classico DOCG Biodynamic
"The 2021 Chianti Classico is a bold, vibrant wine that captures the essence of the house style. Wild cherry, tobacco, menthol, licorice and pipe tobacco all run through this wonderfully complex, dynamic Chianti Classico. This is such a terrific expression of old-school Chianti Classico. Give this time to soften." 93 points - Antonio Galloni (Vinous)
2019 Ormanni Chianti Classico Reserva Borro del Diavolo
Borro del Diavolo is a brook, called “borro” in Tuscany, and it gives its name to the vineyard producing grapes for this Reserva. It is structured and it has its own character, it is elegant, harmonious with balsamic notes and excellent fruity notes.
"The 2019 Chianti Classico Reserva Borro del Diavolo is gorgeous. Beautifully perfumed and nuanced, the Riserva offers up scents of crushed red berry fruit, dried flowers, mint, spice, pipe tobacco, cedar, anise. This deceptively mid-weight riserva has a ton to offer. Behind that nuanced personality lies a wine of notable substance and class." - 94 points - Vinous (Antonio Galloni)
