Ornellaia 1994 Tenuta dell' Ornellaia

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (89)

The 1994 Ornellaia (magnum) is a decidedly small-scaled, mid-weight effort with attractive, fragrant aromatics and delicate notes of tobacco and spices that add a measure of nuance to the fruit. While the 1994 lacks the complexity of the finest vintages, it nevertheless possesses lovely overall balance and harmony. The 1994 Ornellaia is 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc that spent 15 months in French oak, a third of which was new.

Winespectator (85)

An Ornellaia with a good backbone of tannins and fruit, but it's rather too herbal. Medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a green tobacco finish.
