Tasting notes
50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc. Very deep garnet colour. Balsamic, rosemary, mint, anise and dried dates. Finely grainy tannins. It still seems very polished, though the heat of the 15% alcohol intrudes. (JRL)

The 2009 Orma is gorgeous. Espresso, mocha, sweet red cherries, grilled herbs and plums wrap around the palate in this sensual wine from the Tuscan coast. The 2009 doesn't quite have the exuberance or sexiness of 2007 or 2008, but it comes very close. Firm tannins frame a vibrant, energetic finish layered with graphite, smoke and mocha. This is a very beautiful wine from Antonio Moretti and long-time consulting oenologist Carlo Ferrini.
