  56 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 27 % Merlot, 10 % Cabernet Franc, 7 % Petit Verdot: Dunkles Rubinrot, aufhellender Rand. Tiefwirkendes, weit ausladendes und doch auch druckvolles Bouquet, sehr stylish, dunkelbeerig, Preiselbeeren und dunkle Kirschen, würzige Untertöne. Satter Gaumen mit feinrassigem Tanningripp, noch ganz zart austrocknend, druckvoller Verlauf mit feinrassigem Zug und Prägnanz, noch recht jugendliche Frucht, umrahmt von der typischen Ornellaia-Würze."

  A tight and silky red with compacted fruit and tannin texture featuring blackcurrant, mushroom and bark undertones. Full body, firm tannins and a minerally finish. Excellent structure and mouthfeel. A cooler style of Ornellaia, bringing it back to the classicism of this celebrated region. Bordeaux blend."

  The 2012 Ornellaia has a deep garnet/ruby color, and sensual nose of sweet earth, pencil shavings, bay leaves, and blackberry. The palate is exuberant with olive tapenade, black cherry pastilles, and grilled game with freshness that lifts the finish. Simply wonderful. The blend is 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot."

  Sattes, undurchdringliches Rubin-Violett. Eröffnet mit Noten nach Tabak und Lakritze, sehr dicht, dann viel Ribisel und Brombeere, tiefgründig. Straff und satt in Ansatz und Verlauf, füllt den Gaumen mächtig aus, dichtes und sehr straffes Tannin, das sich in vielen Schichten aufbaut, im Finale satter Druck und sehr langer Nachhall. "

  Tawny rose in colour, just the beginning of tertiary notes, freshly cured leather and tobacco, Tuscan dried herbs, campfire smoke, rosemary, cocoa bean, cherry pit and incense. Harvest in 2012 was two weeks earlier than average after a hot vintage. 70% new oak for ageing. Axel Heinz director."

  Wine Spectator
  Features complex aromas of dark fruit and spice right out of the gate, with intense flavors of rich black cherry, blueberry and spice. The firm yet fine tannins add support as this builds to a long finish and aftertaste. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Better than previously reviewed. Best from 2018 through 2032. 2,150 cases imported."

  Big, sweet and appealing with tea leaf aromas and lift. Opulent, sweet-fruited and velvety-textured."
