Renato Ratti

Marcenasco Barolo Nebbiolo 2005

2005 Renato Ratti Marcenasco Barolo. In a good place. Rose, tar, blackfruit, brambles, leather, Rosemary. Still a little tannic but paired so well with a ribeye. One bottle left. — 9 years ago

Gaja

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2001

2001 vintage. Medium garnet. Quite fresh fruit forward raspberry and red plums. Roses and heavy oil fumes. Touches of smoke and woody notes. On the palate, very smooth, silky. Medium bodied. Medium plus acidity, high tannins - very integrated and mouth puckering. Finish is edging to long - fruit forward and cherry liqueur notes. Very decent and drinking well. Would personally keep for another 5+ years before opening as this is still evolving nicely. Still lacks soul - a little too manufactured for my palate. — 10 years ago

Le Vigne Barolo Nebbiolo 1998

Decanted for 2 hours and it starts to open up. Tar, wood, floral, some sort of sweet aroma undertone, fruity on the palate. still tastes vibrant and young! — 12 years ago
