Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 4, 2005 - A well-balanced powerhouse out of the bottle. After 3 hours decanting a really streamlined nose showing cherry, some Bolgheri green notes, and earth undertones - not nearly as forward. Tight and, of course, very young but I get more of a sense of underlying fruit here than I've had before with the usually fairly tame Ornellaia. Well balance all the way through to the slightly coarse tannic finish that should allow for plenty of improvement with age. ****-/5 out of the bottle, ***/5 after decanting which really put this in a shell.
