Sehr aktives Weinrot mit fast schwarzen Reflexen. Geniales Bouquet von Begin weg, dunkles Caramel, Mocca, ein Hauch Zimt und Edelhölzer, alles nobel und homogen mit erotischer Rubensfülle. Grossartiger Gaumen viel Weinvolumen (nicht Alkohol,…) zeigend, ei Paket von Charme und Kraft, das Finale zeigt Korinthen, Lakritze, Rauch und viel schwarze Beeren. Eine extrem süffige Toskana-Bombe! 19/20 trinken – 2025

A wine that does everything right and puts it all in beautiful balance. Full-bodied, yet reserved, silky and elegant, with wonderful fruit and friendly tannins. Best after 2012. –JS

The 2007 Ornellaia is remarkably open and accessible, very much in keeping with the personality of the vintage. Clean, minerally notes frame a core of silky, perfumed dark fruit, mocha, spices, licorice, grilled herbs and leather that impresses for its exceptional length. Tasted next to the 2007 Le Serre Nuove, the 2007 Ornellaia shows more muscle (from the higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon), but in terms of pure quality the wines are very close. The 2007 is not a big, massive Ornellaia, but rather a wine built on elegance and finesse, both of which are on full display. The 2007 should drink well with a minimum of cellaring, but whether it will make old bones remains a question mark at this point. The 2007 Ornellaia is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022.
