      A garnet red. Delicate and persistent fragrance with trace scents of licorice, rose and violet. Full flavored, warm, with extremely elegant tannins offering long persistence. A great wine for important dishes, red meats roasted on a spit or grilled, game, dishes of gourmet white and red meats and ripe cheeses.

      Reviews:

      • Wine Spectator: A touch lean, this red still reveals macerated cherry, strawberry, menthol, iron and spice aromas and flavors aligned to a silky texture. In the end, this is austere for now, with a long, kaleidoscopic finish. Better with air, so decant now or be patient.
      • James Suckling: Lots of dried flowers here give a perfumed nature to it with berries and citrus. Hibiscus water, too. Full-bodied and chewy with lots of tannins and vivid acidity. Subtle plum and strawberry character. Muscular and formed.

      Producer Information

      Renato Ratti is a wine producer located in Barolo in northwestern Italy. It makes a wide range of wines from a number of Piedmont DOC and DOCG appellations, including Barolo, Dolcetto d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, Barbera d'Asti and Monferrato. Renato Ratti spent time in Brazil producing Vermouth and sparkling wines for Cinzano before returning to his home in Piedmont in 1965. He purchased his first vineyard in the La Morra area and began making wines labeled with his own name. Today, the estate has 35 hectares (86 acres) under vine, divided among six vineyards: Colombé, Battaglione, Ochetti, Marcenasco, Conca and Rocche dell'Annunziata. Along with the standard Nebbiolo, Ratti also grows Barbera, Dolcetto, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc. The estate uses traditional means of winemaking for its Barolo wines, although several concessions have been made to modernity in the interest of quality. After the grapes are destemmed and crushed, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Malolactic fermentation takes place in oak barrels before the wines are aged in a combination of French oak and the traditional large oak vats. Both fermentation time and the length of time spent aging in oak have been reduced since the estate's inception in the 1960s. Renato Ratti uses some biodynamic principles: vineyard workers must wear cotton gloves as the indigenous yeasts on the grape's surface are key in the production of a Ratti wine, and the wines are always bottled at a full moon. Renato Ratti makes three single-vineyard Barolos, from the Marcenasco, Conca and Rocche dell'Annuziata cru vineyards. These are the top offerings from the estate, and can be cellared for up to 20 years. Along with the range of classic Piedmont wines from Alba and Asti, Ratti also makes a varietal Sauvignon Blanc wine called I Cedri and a blend of Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot called Villa Pattono, both of which are labeled under the Monferrato DOC.
