Note di degustazione
The 2015 Ornellaia was another top wine of the evening and was tasted and opened alongside numerous bottles of 2015 Sassicaia. Pouring a saturated red color, it reveals a seductive bouquet with crushed lavender, redcurrants, fresh leather, and forest earth. Full-bodied, it’s supple and refined, with polished tannins and a silky texture, its more noble structure holding it all together with incredible length. It's a stunning wine in prime form now, but it should have no problem aging another 15 or more years.

A restrained and earthy wine with well-defined cassis, milk chocolate, underbrush and smoke aromas. It’s full-bodied with a firm, mid-palate mouthfeel and muscular yet perfectly woven tannins. It’s elegant in the finish, with fresh acidity balancing the warmth. Drinkable now, but best in the next ten years.
Magnum. Heavy, dense, chewy and chocolatey – but in a 99% cocoa, bitter sort of way. Still has a long way to go before it reaches its peak. Flecked with bitter flavours yet all in balance. (RH)
100% Sauvignon Blanc, hand-harvested during the last ten days of August in the early hours of the morning. Fermented in barriques – 30% new and 70% used at temperatures no higher than 22 °C. No malolactic fermentation was carried out. The ageing continued for 12 months on the lees with periodic b â tonnage and finished in stainless-steel vats for three more months. Aged in bottle for a further six months before release. Lively and ready. Broad with melon notes. Good grip. Not obviously Sauvignon Blanc. (JR)
