Rich black cherry, plum, earth and tobacco flavors are wrapped in dense tannins in this red, which shows ample sweetness midpalate, with a fresh, crisp, long finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2017 through 2024.

Lots of blackcurrants and blackberry aromas and flavors with hints of bark and mushrooms. Full-bodied, chewy and rich. A powerful red with plenty of structure and depth. This Bordeaux blend from Bolgheri is a challenger to Sassicaia and Ornellaia. Better in 2018.

The 2012 Orma is plump, juicy and quite expressive today. Blackberry jam, mocha, sweet spices and licorice are all woven together in a wine that typifies the textural resonance and plushness that make the wines of Maremma so appealing. Open and radiant, the 2012 will drink well upon release. Hints of sweet tobacco, licorice and herbs add the final shades of nuance.
