Winemakers dinner with Ornellaia. My god, what will this give in a few years? Already superb now. Again the elegance and finish were intruiging!

Amazing. Crisp and elegant. Gave it a decant and two hours - and best sip was the last. Lots of life left. Still vibrant and fresh. Really drinking well.

This is an OMG vintage. Galloni said to wait until 2025, but I couldn’t. If it’s already a heavy hitter now, I have 2 more that I MIGHT be able to let sit until then.

More reserved than the Tignanello but with a silky, polished mouthfeel with tannins lurking that will need more time.

This was a real disappointment. It wasn’t over the hill yet, but not very deep or impressive.
