2009 Renato Ratti Barolo Marcenasco Rocche, Barolo WS--93

Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Score: 93 Release Price: $102 Country: Italy Region: Piedmont Issue: Nov 30, 2013 This red shows a severe side, not only in the balsamic, leather and tar flavors, but also for the intense, bracing structure and chalky feel on the palate. Reveals a sweet core that persists on the lingering finish. Best from 2016 through 2030. 230 cases imported.--BS
