  • An old wine especially compared to the Ornellaia of the same year which we had in parallel. Red color with brownish borders, elegant nose dominated by secondary aromas. More elegant and round than powerful - the usual fruity bouquet with the dominant cherry note which I like so much is missing now. But the wine offers still a lot of drinking pleasure: vanilla, mocca, some dark fruits, tobacco - all in harmony. Medium and velvet finish. I recommend to drink up within a year or so.

  • Youthful, rich and robust. In fact, it has the modern Parker touch when it was served blind to me. Enjoyable.

  • Over the hill , smooth but the colors have faded . Still balanced with a fade away.

  • Bu sur 1-2h, pas de carafe.
    Un peu de dépôts, bouchon qui s'effrite.
    Violet foncé.
    Un peu de terre humide au nez et des fruits aussi (mures).
    En bouche c'est équilibré, les tanins sont encore présents mais évidemment intégrés et le vin est long avec une belle acidité.
    À boire tranquillement, seul ou avec une viande grillée pure, pour apprécié ce produit qui est encore en pleine forme après bientôt 30 ans.
    Note: j'ai trouvé que le cabernet prenait pas mal de place mais ça n'a pas fait l'unanimité.

  • From magnum. A friend was gracious enough to open this while we were visiting. Sweet red cherry fruit with woody notes. Earth, leaf. Very balanced with plenty of acid so a good food wine. We had with buttered scallops which is better than it sounds because the richness of the meal was complemented by the incisiveness of the wine. This is in a great drinking spot right now.
