      "Brigata" Chardonnay Langhe DOC 2023
    • Langhe DOC, Chardonnay in purity, Cantina Ratti's ‘Brigata’ is a wine that well represents the elegance, structure and versatility of Chardonnay. This international grape variety has long since acclimatised in Piedmont, and in particular in the Langhe area, famous for its hilly landscapes and the quality of its wines. It comes from grapes grown at Cascina Palazzo in Dogliani, one of Cantina Ratti's new growing areas. Here the Chardonnay benefits from the calcareous soil and altitude of the Langhe, acquiring good structure and liveliness. Harvesting is done by hand in September, ensuring careful selection of the best bunches. After a soft pressing, the must undergoes alcoholic fermentation that takes place partially in steel and partially in barriques, giving the wine the right combination of freshness and softness. Subsequent ageing in wood then adds a light vanilla note and a more structured body, making Langhe Chardonnay also suitable for bottle ageing for several years. A glass of Brigata has a straw-yellow colour. The nose offers a complex bouquet with hints of exotic fruits, grapefruit and delicate floral notes. In the mouth, however, it is fresh and savoury, with a good structure and a slightly honeyed finish. Good right from the start, this Chardonnay is suitable for medium ageing. It accompanies fish dishes, shellfish and crustaceans, but also goes well with vegetarian or vegetable dishes. After a few years in the bottle, it is also perfect with spicy dishes, thanks to the greater depth it acquires over time.

      Renato Ratti's name is inextricably linked to the evolution and establishment of modern Barolo. It was his idea to introduce the concept of Cru in the Langhe. With these words one is welcomed to the website of the beautiful winery in La Morra, one of the best known and best loved in the Langhe. The company was founded in 1965, when Renato bought the first vineyard for the production of Barolo. It is a small vineyard in the historic area of Marcenasco, below the Abbey of the Annunziata at La Morra. In 1969 his nephew Massimo Martinelli, also an oenologist, joined the company, with whom he perfected the technique of vinification, maturation and refinement of Barolo Marcenasco, to obtain elegance, finesse and longevity. The method developed by Ratti is completely innovative for the area. And thanks to his commitment, Renato Ratti became an important reference point for Langhe wine, leading him to the position of President of the Barolo Consortium and later Director of the Asti Consortium. Today, Cantina Ratti's vineyards extend over about 50 hectares, divided into 6 estates located in La Morra, Mango and Costigliole d'Asti and Dogliani. The distance between the different plots determines the presence of very different grape varieties, microclimates and soils. It is no coincidence that the winery produces all the classic Langa wines in the modern facility in La Morra.
