Renato Ratti Barolo Rocche 2020

96 POINTS! - JAMES SUCKLING
FROM THE ACCLAIMED, HISTORIC SITE ROCCHE DELL'ANNUNZIATA, THIS IS AN OPULENT, LONG-LIVED NEBBIOLO
 

"A very fine and polished Barolo with lots of orange peel and sliced dried strawberry. Medium body with solid and linear tannins that run through the center palate. Very structured. The lighter color is slightly off-putting but it shows structure and solidity. Give this time to open. Try after 2029." - James Suckling

 

"The vineyard of Rocche dell'Annunziata in La Morra is historically considered one of the most important of the all Barolo area. It's located at around 300 slm with a south-west exposure and the size is around 1.50 ha. The typical blue marl soil with some layers of sand gives an incredible elegance and deep and persistent bouquet of roses and licorice.

A delicate and persistent bouquet with traces of licorice, rose and tobacco. Full flavored, warm and moderately tannic. A great wine for important dishes, red meats on the spit or grilled, game, "grande cuisine" white and red meat dishes and aged cheeses." - Renato Ratti
