Merchant's description
Ornellaia must surely be considered one of the ultimate expressions of Bolgheri in Tuscany. The 1995 is a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc. Still displaying classic warm dark fruit and spice, it now also presents a deep, savoury olive tapenade and sage complexity. Gorgeous.
