Sassicaia vs. Ornellaia

The title pretty much says it all! I'm going to have to try what the fuzz is about - I've tasted Tignanello and really enjoyed it. But I need you guys' help picking between the two behemoths of super-tuscans. Sassicaia seems to be the better one but I can get an older vintage of the Ornellaia for the same price. So the choice is:

Sassicaia 2018

vs.

Ornellaia 2011

Which one would you choose?
