Ornellaia 1996

Bolgheri, DOC

Levels just into neck or better, 2 labels badly damaged at bottom left corner, 1 is damaged at bottom right corner and 1 label creased at top right, 2 capsules cut to reveal vintage and 1 is missing; Niveaux juste dans le goulot ou mieux 2 étiquettes très abimées en bas dans le coin gauche, 1 est abimée en bas dans le coin droit et 1 étiquette plissée en haut à droite, 2 capsules coupées pour voir le millésime et 1 est manquante

75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. In 2015, a wonderfully vivid, showy nose of vibrant red fruit dominated by blackcurranty Cabernet Sauvignon, with a touch of strawberry. A splash of crimson fruit on the palate, with real freshness and youthful appeal. Then the sweetness kicks in. Very attractive and glossy - and so easy to imbibe! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
