Lot presentation
Barolo DOCG Marcenasco Renato Ratti 1979
The wine
Produced from the Nebbiolo grape, as stipulated under the appellation's rules, this Barolo has a garnet-red visual aspect and an intense bouquet of licorice and tobacco. The robust, elegant palate is a demonstration of this wine's excellent potential for keeping, enabling divine pairings with high-quality meat and cheeses of character. To produce this wine, the domain harvests the grapes at optimum maturity, destems and crushes them, and performs fermentation at a controlled temperature, 10 days of maceration and two years' élevage in barrels.
Situated in the Italian Piedmont in the Langhe, Roero and Montferrat regions, the Renato Ratti domaine as been making top-flight wines since 1965. They are created according to environmentally friendly principles and the domaine has forged a fine reputation by working experimentally with the grape varieties in its vineyard.
