Ornellaia--Vintage 1998
Tuscany. Estate-bottled: Antinori
Tasting Note: The 1998 is a decidedly slender Ornellaia. More advanced than the 1999, it shows notes of tobacco, herbs and ripe fruit on a medium-bodied frame with good length on the palate and slightly less polished tannins than is usually the case. The final blend in 1998 was 60 Cabernet Sauvignon, 35 Merlot and 5 Cabernet Franc. 91/Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018. Robert Parker, Italy Report # GX (Apr 2007)
