| Description: | 95 Wa / 95 JS / 94 Ws / 93 We. Pietro Ratti's 2015 Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata is the most structured and firmly textured of the Barolos presented in this tasting of new releases. This wine is tight and compact at its core, but it needs a little prodding and swirling of the glass before it hints at the grandeur and the layering of fruit nuances embedded in its very Dna. Just give it time, this wine requires a little extra patience before it fully blossoms. All those beautiful Nebbiolo complexities are hidden just below the surface and will emerge with more bottle aging. Only 5,000 bottles were made. Monica Larner – The Wine Advocate. A chewy and polished red with berry and tile character and hints of plums. Medium-to full-bodied. Chewy tannins that are polished and firm. Very pretty. One of the best ever. Better after 2021. James Suckling. This red exudes macerated cherry, strawberry, rose and subtle incense aromas and flavors. Elegant, though firmly structured, with fine balance and well-integrated tannins. Fruit, licorice and spice accents linger. Best from 2021 through 2036. 120 cases imported.-Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator. Aromas of spice, woodland berry, pressed rose, coconut and French oak form the nose. The taut, linear palate offers raspberry compote, licorice, espresso, vanilla and sage. Tightly knit, close-grained tannins leave a firm, drying finish. Drink 2023–2035. - Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast |
