12/3/2016 - Motz wrote: 94 pointsThe bouquet offers a harmonious balance of lush fruit, rustic terroir, and quality oak, with floral, herb, dark chocolate, and espresso accents. (Noticeably less oaky that then 2010 Fontalloro tasted next to it.) The wine's weight imparts an impression of viscosity. Not excessively polished. Intriguing, balanced, and in some way reminiscent of the 2010 Pontet Canet. One of the more approachable vintages of Oreno at a young age, but it is no whimp, packing a serious tannic wallop that begins at the middle and lingers through a complex finish. It should evolve over the next eight to ten years. It held its own next to a 2012 Ornellaia. |

12/2/2016 - Thorgal Likes this wine: 93 pointsUpon opening a savory sour cherry nose, with some tar and mint on the side. Very present nose. Seems to be getting in its prime, although the color is a deep cherry red and its a rather thick wine to pour with still mostly primary and secondary aroma's. Seems to gain weight over time, at first had a medium bodied mouthfeel, later turned to full bodied. I started out a 91, butIt becomes more interesting as time progresses. Its my last 2005, but I'll be more carefull with my '09's, because its clear the 05 had much much more life ahead of it. Great experience nonetheless ! |

11/16/2016 - djdaqm Likes this wine: 92 pointsSolid, well balanced wine with plenty of life and ability to age. Nice cross between a Bordeaux and new world style, with concentration and decent extraction along with acidity, tannins, and subtle oak. Continues to improve and has lots of potential over another 10 years. |

11/15/2016 - Double-A Likes this wine: 93 pointsClosed at first then opens up to reveal smoky currants and toasted pumpernickel bread. A big wine but artfully balanced; full and compact fruit, rich, chewy tannin. High 15% alcohol, but it is well integrated and not obvious. Good, firm finish. |

11/7/2016 - megropolis Likes this wine: 90 pointsIt's a wine designed for early appreciation , ready to show what it has. Well rounded, international style which maybe not distinctive but with enough layers to keep it interesting. Hard not to like it though this is not fruit forward wine.To me, this is a bargain given a fair price and and I would be happy to enjoy it any day. It compete with many lower tear Bordeaux wines but kind of gives away it's Italian origins. Don't over think, just enjoy. |

10/19/2016 - BSteffes Likes this wine: 95 pointsStunning! Drinking perfectly now. Opens up after 30--45 in the glass. Mouthfuls of black licorice, dried meat, and herbs. hint of mint. One of the best super Tuscans I had ever enjoyed. After ten years, she is amazing! |

10/17/2016 - Canoehead Likes this wine: 92 pointsNot as good as an '04 we opened several months ago. This has definitely peaked and is showing tawny orange on the rim. The fruit is fading and the acidity is negligible. It was fine with a roast pork tenderloin and mushroom risotto. Definitely opening our last bottle very soon. |
