Very earth aromas as expected by the age. Some liqour and spicies. Aromas not so powerfull as o would expect. Well balanced, good acidity. Not past peak, but Will be soon .

Quite fruit forward, lots of iron. Great acid and grip. After 6 hours of air, a pure cherry fruit with a sour twinge. No tertiary flavors- no bacon, no rust, no leaves. Fresh and delicious. Lots of salinity on the nose with cherry, black soil, wet stone, leather, rose. Had with veal chop & morels w/ creme fraiche - was the bomb. A weaker vintage, but a fantastic value for a Ratti that is ready to drink, and is approachable while remaining challenging and interesting.
