Ornellaia 2009

Bolgheri, Tuscany, ItalyBeautiful fragrant floral nose with minty, savoury, black cherry, cassis jam, liquorice and smoky olive aromas. The attack is elegant and smooth palate with fine tannins and more black olive, thyme, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, licorice root, black berry and cassis flavours. Persistent flavours with fine concentration with some youthful tannin to dissipate over the next 2-7 years. Impressive as ever. The blend is 52% cabernet sauvignon, 22% merlot, 21% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot.
