The time has come to settle the score. We will be throwing down the challengers to the reign of Ornellaia from one of the best vintages in the past decade...
We will serve them blind, casually vote for our favourites then unmask them. There are no winners of losers to this throw-down, but I have a few working theories about which is going to look the best.
Everything will be decanted and served in the best possible conditions to show how they look now and grab a glimpse into their future trajectories.
