WA review: The 2006 Ornellaia flows from the glass in a profound expression of ripe, darkfruit. With time in the glass layers of minerals, cassis, tar, sweet herbs andFrench oak emerge, adding further complexity. This harmonious Ornellaiacombines the richness of the vintage with superb freshness and awesome balance.Today the wine's sheer density almost manages to hide the tannins, butthey are there, and the wine will ultimately benefit from a few years in thecellar.

Community Tasting Notes (average 90.6 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 30 notes)

Drank at our anniversary dinner 2009 at Ado. $114. A nice wine that opened up great. At first, I was a little closed, but you could tell it would be delicious. Later it was a great balanced super Tuscan. Not all time, but very good.

Do not drink until either Dani and Kellie get engaged OR 2012
