Description
Ornellaia 1995
Bolgheri, DOC
Slightly soiled label, very slight signs of seepage, in wax capsule
This was the highest ever production but superb weather married this with great quality. Lovely fresh, red fruit nose with a real, prolonged scent. Great fruit and body on the palate. A monument! An utterly complete wine, so fruity that it explodes on the palate now but will go any distance you want. Will probably be like redcurrant liqueur 20 years hence. Totally succulent on the finish. In 2011, scented in a distinctly 'Margaux' way. Violetty. Dense, velvety and yet with real elegance. Juicy and fresh, with an aniseed flavour and a touch of irony definition on the finish. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
1 imperial - 6 litres (owc)
