Stunning elegance on the nose, with vibrant dried eucalyptus leaves, flowers, restrained brambleberries and hints of black cherries, dried bananas, milk chocolate, cloves and graphite. The palate is full-bodied with elegant tannins and a touch of dust. It’s savory and well packed, with integrated, brilliant freshness and a ripe, fruity finish with a toasty aftertaste of blond tobacco. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e97 Points \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"author\" class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"author\" class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003ePetit Verdot plays a slightly larger role in this vintage and was one of the surprise hits of 2022.

A deep but bright purple\/red color, it has a fantastic nose of blackberries, polished cedar, lavender, sweet herbs, and dark cocoa. Full-bodied, it has a rich structure, with warming concentration but a very balanced feel. The tannins are ripe and frame the underlying mineral notes very nicely, its fruity richness fleshing it out harmoniously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\" class=\"sr-only\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e96 Points \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"author\" class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinous\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe 2022 Ornellaia is a terrific wine for the year. Dark red-toned fruit, mocha, new leather, licorice and spice all take shape in a mid-weight, pliant Ornellaia that is quite alluring, even in the early going. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot, unusual for the elevated presence of Petit Verdot, which did better than Franc in 2022. The 2022 Ornellaia is clearly among the most successful wines of the vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\" class=\"sr-only\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_rating\"\u003e95 Points \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan itemprop=\"author\" class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\"\u003eDecanter \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eOrnellaia 2022 is bold, dark fruited and spicy at this early stage, reflecting the increased percentage of Petit Verdot used in the blend.
