Renato Ratti
Renato Ratti vineyards are located along the hills of Italy's Langhe, Roero and Montferrat regions. They are all carefully cultivated with the greatest respect for the terroir. In 1965, Renato Ratti bought his first small vineyard in Barolo Marcenasco. With hard work, the estate has now grown to a total of 35 hectares, spread over 6 parcels in La Morra, Mango and Costigliole d'Asti. The grape varieties, microclimates and soils are different, but the land is cultivated with the same love of the vine and respect for the environment.

The principles that govern Renato Ratti 's work and choices have been summed up in his own words: "There are three factors that characterize a great wine: the vine, the climate and the soil. One factor, however, is decisive: man. The connections between climate, soil and vine are truly complex; when, through a combination of hard work and serendipity, they reach a perfect balance, we are blessed with wines of incomparable quality". In the 90s, the Renato Ratti estate began work on expanding and restoring the family vineyard, and promoted ongoing research into the various grape varieties produced in the different areas of the vineyard. The construction of a new winery was completed in the 2000s, to provide the best conditions for vinification and ageing of the wines and thus the founder's essential objective: the utmost respect for the original grapes and vines.

"A true ambassador for the Ratti estate and the Barolo appellation!

"Made from vines just outside this modern estate with its exterior wood panelling and clean architectural lines, at the foot of the La Morra rise, this wine is Ratti's best-known and also his largest production, with 70,000 bottles produced. The 2019 Barolo Marcenasco shows the benefits of a stylistic overhaul that favors understated elegance and finesse. The wine is visibly leaner, opening with ethereal tones of blue flower, dried cherry, blood orange and chalky mineral. These little tweaks have opened up an exciting new chapter for Marcenasco." (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate 2023)

"A vibrant Langhe Nebbiolo, a worthy representative of this iconic grape variety from the Piedmont region!"

"Brilliant ruby red with a delicately lightening rim. Fragrant nose of wild strawberries, rose petal and a hint of candied cherries. Beautiful ripe fruit on the palate, bright, with great juiciness and finely meshed tannins, balanced, vibrant, with good persistence." (Falstaff 2024)

"A confidential cuvée for an exceptional Barolo by Ratti!

"Here's an interesting new proposal from Ratti. Serradenari is a great MGA and one of the few vintage sites that exist on the western slope below the village of La Morra. The 2019 Barolo Serradenari has a more botanical bouquet, namely lavender buds, thyme, anise and the kind of flowers and herbs you might find in a fragrant garden. It's nuanced and delicate, framed by a light note of ash or crushed limestone. The finish is quite firm and nervous." (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate 2023)

"A great Barolo praised by the critics!

"The 2019 Barolo Rocche Dell'Annunziata is spectacular. Aged for two years in 25 hectoliter Slavonian casks, it's bursting with aromas of licorice, raspberry liqueur, pressed roses and crushed stones. Full-bodied, with a weightless feel, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity, it has a continuous arc through the mid-palate, with no rough edges, and is packed with ripe red cherries, cedar, black tea and dried flowers."

"A vintage of great style!

"One of the best Barolos of the vintage, this marvel opens with aromas of rose, forest berries, undergrowth and new leather. Superb and simply delicious, the full-bodied palate is full of flavor and finesse, with aromas of crushed raspberry, ripe red cherry, cake spice and licorice, all accompanied by taut, silky tannins. Fresh acidity maintains the balance. Although already fantastic, it also shows great aging potential. Drink between 2024 and 2038. (Wine Enthusiast 2022).

Cuvée Colombè features the Italian Dolcetto grape variety, typical of Piedmont. A variety that flourishes on sun-drenched limestone terroir, it produces a fruity, intense wine with aromas of cherry and wild plum. A well-balanced, fresh cuvée with a very pleasant finish. A wine for pleasure par excellence!
