2016 Ornellaia Bolgheri Superiore, Tuscany, Italy (750ml) Varietal_Pinot Noir creating a layered and complexTASTING NOTES: The 2016 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia is a wine of extreme complexity and precision. It offers monumental depth with profound layers of black fruit, coffee, licorice and baking chocolate. I tasted this 2016 vintage beside the less impactful 2015 vintage (which was reviewed last year). These two editions are very different when compared side to side, and this 2016 release is clearly superior in terms of the quality, clarity and intensity
