Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Tasted a few months after it was bottled, the Ornellaia 2022 Bolgheri Superiore Ornellaia will be coming to market in March 2025. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot. The wine sees 18 months of aging with up to 70% new oak, but the trick, proprietor Lamberto Frescobaldi tells me, is drawing from a large group of coopers with different toast levels and forests. "I don't want to make a wine of any one tonnellerie," he says. The oak element is crucial to the identity of this wine that reveals dark fruit, blackberry, sweet spice and cinnamon. Most of the vines were planted in the 1980s, and the average age of the plants is over 20 years old. Fruit comes from many parcels, including Bellaria, Bellaria Nuova, Bellaria Alta, Pero, Fosso, Vigna Vecchia and Stallina. Indeed, some 80 wines are made before final blending. The 2022 vintage will be remembered for its full-bodied appeal, concentrated fruit and generous oak renderings. Petit Verdot plays a slightly larger role in this vintage and was one of the surprise hits of 2022. It serves to elongate the wine and adds to its length. The wine's abundant fruit weight cedes to elegantly integrated tannins. This vintage will appeal to die-hard Ornellaia enthusiasts. Drink Date 2027-2050. Rating 97/100. -Monica Larner-

Vinous:

The 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 higher percentage of Petit Verdot comes through in the wine’s dark-leaning personality and also in the quality of tannins. More than anything else, the 2022 is a reminder of how important a tool blending is, especially in challenging years. I can’t wait to see how this ages. The 2022 Ornellaia is clearly among the most successful wines of the vintage. Drink Date 2028-2044. Rating 96/100. -Antonio Galloni-

James Suckling:

A Mediterranean-style wine. 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. Try from 2026. Rating 98/100. -JamesSuckling.com-

falstaff.com:

Dunkel schimmerndes Rubinviolett. Einprägsame Nase, präsentiert sich mit viel saftiger Frucht, vor allem Cassis und Heidelbeere, im Hintergrund etwas rauchige Noten. Am Gaumen frisch und erstaunlich saftig, griffiges, sehr gut eingebundenes Tannin, zeigt gute Spannung, schwingt sehr lange nach, eine Flasche, die man einfach gerne leert! Bewertung 98/100. -falstaff.com, Peter Moser, Ulrich Sautter, Benjamin Herzog, Dominik Vombach-

Adrian van Velsen - vvWine.ch:

(55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Petit Verdot, 14.5% Alkohol). Strahlendes Rubinrot; expressive, fruchtbetonte Nase, viel dunkle Cassisfrucht, Kirschen, sehr subtile Röstnoten, blonder Tabak, mit Luft florale und zitrische Aromen, die an Orangen; am Gaumen mit glasklarer Frucht, stimmige Säure, seidenweiches Tannin, dieses ist in Massen vorhanden und ist in perfekter Harmonie mit der satten, reifen Frucht; langer, würziger Abgang, hallt auf dunkle Früchte und Süssholz nach. Ein warmherziger Ornellaia, der früh Spass bereiten dürfte und doch gut reifen kann. Trinkreife 2028-2050+. Bewertung 96/100. -Adrian van Velsen – vvWine.ch-
