Friday, November 23, 2018 - Ornellaia tasting #4:

Separate vinification of 50-60 plots, blended after 12 months in barriques, bottled after a total of 18 months in barriques. Released after 12 months in bottle.

Still young and a little austere on the nose. Blue fruit, black currant, blyerts, cedar, herbs, coffee, violet, spices and some roasted notes.

Grippy tannins, a little warm and harsh. Improves significantly with time in glass.

BV=3
WV=4 (mine)

Very different opinions in the group.
