Description

Ornellaia 2001

Bolgheri, DOC

u. 1bn


Cabernet Sauvignon 65%, Merlot 30%, Cabernet Franc 5%. In 2024, a fantastic dense colour, followed by an amazing deep cherry and liquorice nose, more intense and imposing each time I taste it, with its inimitable Ornellaia scent. Huge cassis and blueberries on the palate, rich, ripe and opulent. This has decades to go, if you have the willpower to wait.....It seems to have increased in volume, glycerol and sweetness - huge and majestic. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
