1 BOTTLE X 75cl. 

For the 14th edition of Ornellaia Vendemmia d'Artista, Nathalie Djurberg and Hans Berg interpret the character "Il Vigore" by Ornellaia 2019, chosen to describe the energy of growth in plants and the flourishing condition of nature that transforms itself giving life to a landscape of energy, strength and power. As with every edition, the artists created a collection of large formats: 100 Double Magnums (3L), 10 Imperials (6L) and a single Salmanazar (9L). Djurberg and Berg have designed a special label for the 750 ml format: a single bottle with an artist's label is contained in each case of 6 bottles of Ornellaia 2019.

The Artists Nathalie Djurberg & Hans Berg
Swedish artists Nathalie Djurberg and Hans Berg have been working together since 2004. Using different media and techniques, they work on the intersection of images, sounds, animation and music to create multisensory works with a strong emotional impact. In their imaginary and fairytale world, lively stop-motion animations dramatized by the music of Hans Berg, are fragments of memories and dreams that unfold carnival reversals of characters and reversals of roles.

Special Labels
In the interpretation of the character of Ornellaia 2019 "Il Vigore", the artists focus the project on the theme of metamorphosis, the cyclic nature of nature and its transformation, as well as on the relationship between man and earth. These concepts are expressed in a project that develops in evolution from the design designed for the 750 ml and 3L label to the sculptures of the large 6L and 9L formats. Through the five senses the artists invite us to reflect on the infinite creative possibilities of nature. This concept is expressed through touch in the design created for the labels of the Doppio Magnum bottle (3 liters) where the relief was made with small grains of earth from the Ornellaia vineyards, enhancing, through the tactile sensation, the direct link between man and nature. The Salmanazar represents the final evolution of this process, where floral elements with voluptuous shapes and other creatures seem to be born from the bottle. Finally, the video with the introduction of movement and sound represents a further phase of this transformation that combines art, life and nature.

The 2019 vintage was characterized as few by a very variable climate, which alternated periods of cold and rain with long periods of drought and heat. After a normal winter, budding took place in the first week of April. The cold and rainy conditions throughout April and May significantly slowed down the vegetative development, leading to a 10-day delayed flowering compared to the average. In June, a very hot and rainless weather suddenly arrived with temperature peaks of 37 ° C reached at the end of the month. Throughout the summer, the weather remained warm and sunny with temperatures well 2 ° C above average and 45 consecutive days without rain. In the last week of July, the long dry period was interrupted by two days of rain, allowing the temperature to be brought back to the seasonal norm, with ideal conditions for ripening. The harvest began slowly on September 5th. As usual, the last week of September saw a lowering of temperatures which made it possible to preserve a great finesse and aromatic freshness. After another rainy event after 21 September, sunny conditions returned which allowed us to conclude the harvest of the later vines on 4 October.

VINIFICATION AND AGING:

The harvest took place by hand in 15 kg crates and the bunches were selected on a double sorting table before and after destemming and subjected to soft pressing at the end. In 2016, in addition to manual selection, the optical one was introduced to further increase the quality of the selection. Each variety and each parcel was vinified separately. Alcoholic fermentation took place partly in stainless steel vats, partly in concrete vats at temperatures between 26 and 30 ° C for a week, followed by a maceration of about 15 days, for a total stay in the tank. about three weeks. The malolactic fermentation took place mainly in oak barriques (70% new and 30% second passage). The wine remained in barriques in the Ornellaia cellar at a controlled temperature for a period of about 18 months. After the first 12 months, the assembly was carried out, then reintroduced into the barriques, where it spent another 6 months. The wine remains in the bottle for 12 months before being launched on the market.

NOTES OF THE OENOLOGIST:

"With an intense ruby ​​red color, Ornellaia 2019 is characterized on the nose by intriguing spicy and balsamic notes, including aromas of black pepper, sage and aromatic herbs. When tasted, the wine is full-bodied, but at the same time vibrant and fills the palate with its dense and elegant tannic texture, which closes in a persistent and beautifully crunchy finish. "
