Description

Ornellaia 1997 & 1998

Bolgheri, DOC

Good levels and appearance; Bons niveaux et apparence,


60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. In 2019, this is spectacular, so rich, velvety and mouth-filling. The great black fruit bouquet leads to such opulence, with perfect structure behind it. Stupendous with paccheri pasta and an oxtail ragù. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
