Tobacco, sage and rosemary come through nicely, together with redcurrants and cassis. Full-bodied, yet polished, with a solid and dense center-palate. Tight at the end now, but will open nicely. Needs two or three years to develop. 50% merlot, 30% cabernet sauvignon and 20% cabernet franc. Try after 2025.

The 7.5ha Orma estate is located between Sassicaia and Ornellaia above the Bolgheri road, where there's less sand in the soil. Vinified in stainless steel with an 18-day maceration and regular pumping over, this blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc is then matured for 18 months in barriques, 50% new, followed by a further 12 months in bottle. Fresh and aromatic, the nose is full of sweet red fruits and herbs. Intense, zingy and spicy in the mouth, vibrant red and black hedgerow berries are accompanied by chocolate and herb streaks. Still very youthful, expect this to unfurl over the next few years.

A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, the Orma 2020 Orma is richly concentrated and midnight black in appearance. It presents considerable intensity in terms of its ink-like flavors of wild plum, blackberry confit, dark spice and cured tobacco. The wine wraps heavily over the palate, imparting lots of important textural richness along the way. You are best off serving a wine of this depth and magnitude with a classic T-bone cut bistecca alla fiorentina.- ML

(93+ points) A deeper red hue, the 2020 Orma is a little slower to reveal its more layered depth, with aromas of black cherry, cocoa powder, pine sap, and crushed flowers. Full-bodied, with gripping structure and angular, snappy acidity, it has good tension and will do well to see more time in bottle. I really like this wine, but it has a touch of a tangy green tinge that some may find a touch assertive. Drink 2025-2040. - Audrey Frick

A luscious red, with plum, blueberry and blackberry flavors holding court, wrapped in accents of tobacco, vanilla and oak spices. Shows fine length in the end, with echoes of fruit and spicy oak. Dry, persistent finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2033. - BS
