Decanter Magazine
Decanter: In 1965, Renato Ratti created the ‘Marcenasco style’, now skilfully being continued by his son Pietro. The cherry scents, cedar, liquorice and sinuous palate faithfully reflect the velvety terroir of La Morra. Both dynamic and drinkable. Drinking Window 2019 - 2040.

Wine Enthusiast
Enticing scents of ripe wild berry, star anise, menthol and fragrant blue flower mingle with whiffs of camphor and espresso. The smooth, precise palate offers crushed raspberry, Marasca cherry, licorice and dried botanical herbs alongside fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity lifts the finish. Enjoy through 2027.

Wine Advocate - Monica Larner
Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate: This is a beautifully fully and generous expression from a vineyard that has historically been farmed by the Ratti family of La Morra. The Marcenasco cru is located directly under the winery, and although it is not in the official list of MGA crus, the vineyard name is registered to this winery. In the 2015 Barolo Marcenasco, you get the full fruit and dark berry nuances of the vintage with pretty softness and approachable, supple tannins. This wine celebrated its 50th anniversary (1965-2015) with this vintage.
