About this wine

The 1995 Ornellaia is a Cabernet-dominant blend that has developed complex aromas of dried dark fruits, tobacco, leather, spice and a touch of mint. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied with velvety tannins, integrated acidity and a long, savoury finish. It shows more finesse than sheer power, reflecting both the vintage and its age.

Tasting Note

Robert Parker describes the 1995 (especially from magnum) as remarkably fresh with warm, exotic fruit, sweet tobacco and liquorice and a rich, full-bodied palate.

In the glass

Garnet-ruby with brick rim.

In the nose

Dried cherry, plum compote, tobacco, leather, cedar, herbs and a hint of mint.

On the palate

Mature and silky, with softened tannins, savoury complexity and a long, spicy, tertiary finish.

Ornellaia

One of Bolgheri’s leading estates and a global standard for polished Tuscan Bordeaux blends. Ornellaia combines power and grace through meticulous vineyard work and fine-grained oak. Expect richness, deep fruit, and long, layered finishes. Luxurious yet always balanced.
