I was blown away by the 1999 Ornellaia. Still fresh and youthful, it reveals a powerful, authoritative personality in its layers of primary fruit, with its opulence beautifully balanced by its big yet polished tannins. Another year or two of bottle age is probably called for but readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off this gorgeous wine. Given its considerable structure it should have no problem aging for another dozen years. In 1999 the blend consisted of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. 95/Anticipated maturity: 2009-2019.

Wow. Currants, berries, cherries and minerals, but all subtlety. Full- to medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a long finish. Complex wine. However, a significant price hike, which follows the purchase of the estate by the Mondavi and Frescobaldi families, is disappointing. Best after 2005. 12,165 cases made. ?JS

Tenuta dell'Ornellaia
En surplomb sur les hauteurs entourant Bolgheri, le domaine Ornellaia se cache parmi les collines dominant la Méditerranée. Les brises maritimes fraîches caressent les vignobles et les oliveraies alentour durant la période estivale alors qu’en hiver, au contraire, les collines les abritent des vents froids descendant du Nord. Chez Ornellaia, le terroir tient une place particulière et doit s’exprimer de la manière la plus fidèle. La diversité des sols – marins, alluvionnaires et volcaniques – associée au climat maritime créent un environnement de prédilection favorable à l’épanouissement des cépages rouges et blancs. Les nombreuses parcelles de vignes s’inscrivent dans le paysage à la manière d’une mosaïque, à l’origine d’une expression de beauté, de complexité et d’élégance unique. Néanmoins, l’équipe expérimentée, compétente et déterminée d’Ornellaia contribue grandement à accroître la qualité et la réputation du domaine. Car c’est bien ce dernier qui offre une source d’inspiration inépuisable, suggérant des manières exclusives et passionnantes de capter sa générosité naturelle.
