A consignor who began collecting in 2002, after being introduced to Cakebread Cabernet at a dinner. His wine was sourced through the LCBO and auctions. The bottles were stored at a constant 57 degrees in a Vintage Keeper.
The score for 2010 Ornellaia Bolgheri DOC is 97+ from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Poured from the special anniversary bottle, the 2010 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia is a truly outstanding wine that leaves a lasting memory for those who are lucky enough to enjoy it. What stands out is the absolutely seamless-seamless-seamless (yes, it's worth repeating three times) integration of its many moving parts. The wine magically transitions from cherry, spice, chocolate and espresso in one melodic and continuous loop. It exudes balance and elegance over long, delicious minutes. It is profoundly impressive. Anticipated maturity - 2016-2030. Of all the grapevines planted on the Ornellaia estate, the 2010 vintage showed best results with Merlot, says Leonardo Raspini. Because the harvest was later than usual, the early-ripening grape enjoyed a slow and steady evolution.
