Ornellaia 1995 (1 IMP)

Ornellaia 1995

Bolgheri, DOC

Good level, excellent label, slight signs of old seepage on side of wax capsule and inside owc; Bon niveau, excellente étiquette, légers signes d'écoulement anciens sur le côté de la capsule en cire et à l'intérieur de la cbo

76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc. The largest production at Ornellaia. In 2015, a great aromatic, wild herbs, spearmint nose that jumps out of the glass at you. Strawberries à gogo on the palate, with the aromatic base supporting a meaty, blackberries and vanilla pod taste. Tannin and glycerol in equal proportions, which make for extremely harmonious drinking.
