Red Wine
Barolo Marcenasco
Renato Ratti · Barolo, Italy
About this wine
Renato Ratti is a historically vital figure in Barolo, credited with mapping the region's crus and modernizing its winemaking. The Barolo Marcenasco is a magnificent, very full-bodied Italian red crafted exclusively from the noble Nebbiolo grape. It displays the varietal's hallmark high acidity and a potent 14.0% ABV, offering a deeply structured, fiercely tannic, and aromatic palate. To properly enjoy this age-worthy Piedmontese classic, pair it with deeply savory dishes like rich pasta, beef, roasted lamb, and game meat.
