Tenuta dell´Ornellaia - Ornellaia VdT 1995

Weinwisser: "Immer noch sehr dunkles Rot. Würziges, dezent süsses Bouquet, dunkles Nussmehl, Schwarzbrot, ein Hauch von Minze, alleine in der Nase schon eine geniale Aromatik zeigend. Im Gaumen fest, gut gegliederter Körper, keine Spur von Müdigkeit, im Extrakt viel dunkles Malz, mit würzigen Noten enden."

Jancis Robinson: "Very dark healthy shaded crimson. Intense, ripe but subtle – very interesting! Rather like ashes on the palate – a big bruiser with something in common with the 1985 but made much more gently."

The Wine Advocate: "Is the 1995 Ornellaia better than previous vintages? It is too soon to know, but this is unquestionably another stunning wine in what has been a strong succession of top wines since 1988. The color is a saturated, thick-looking, ruby/purple. The nose offers up aromas of roasted coffee, jammy black cherry liqueur, and cassis intermixed with spice. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with well-integrated wood, tannin, and acidity. Pure, youthful, and accessible, this impressively endowed wine should drink well for 10-15+ years."
