Ornus dell ' Ornellaia , the result of a late harvest of Petit Manseng, is a wine produced in extremely limited quantities, capable of giving a new dimension to the estate. In some vintages the very small “Palmetta” vineyard offers the perfect conditions for the production of this exclusive sweet wine. The name Ornus dell ' Ornellaia is inspired by the' Fraxinus Ornus', the Latin name of the Ornella, the tree to which we owe the name of Ornellaia . Typical plant of the Mediterranean scrub, also known as the 'manna tree' due to its precious biblical lymph used as an ancient sweetener, the Orniello or 'Faxinuns Ornus' alludes with perfect correspondence to the sweetness of Ornus dell' Ornellaia .
