- Crimsom color - The last of my 08s lovely cassis and blackcurrant. The tannins still there perfectly and it was a pleasure to again drink the fantastic LSN.

Worried it might be “over” but it was gorgeous. No sign of age - completely in its window. Integrated, long, smooth, complex and immensely enjoyable right from the getgo. Will go on for at least 5 more years. Had been stored from release in a temp controlled cellar.

drinking nicely, not over the hill in the least, glad I decanted for an hour. well balanced with dark fruits, black cherry, mocha. Wifey also loved it and she generally isn't a fan of aged wines

(Tenuta dell’Ornellaia Le Serre Nuove, Bolgheri DOC) 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot. Blackcurrant and cassis aromas come forward, along with pronounced notes of menthol and even rose. Plush, black-cherry fruit emerges on the palate of this wine, but as in its upper-tier stable mate, the tannins are still tightly knit. Appellation: Bolgheri

Very pleasant all around. Some fine sediment in the bottom so either decant or watch the tail carefully.
