Chicago Wine Flock...Gary Opening Well Aged Barolo (Ada Street - Chicago IL): Open and decanted several hours before serving. From before Ratti produced single vineyard Barolo, I was told this is mostly/all from La Morra. I found both vintages of Ratti to showcase softer and elegant fruit, even if slightly firm and tannic. Good cross-section of red cherry with both tart and sweet character in the charming array of fruit.
