Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Dolcetto d’Alba Colombe impresses for its fleshy varietal fruit and approachable personality. The freshness and vibrancy of the year offers a nice contrast to the dark aromas and flavors. This is a very strong effort. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014.

Located halfway up the hill dominating the principal valley of Barolo, buttressed by steep slopes lined by orderly vineyards, lies a precious jewel from the 15th century: the Abbey of Annunziata.
As the monks historically produced wine from the grapes of the surrounding hillsides, today, remembering their lessons, incomparable wines are produced.
From the 100 acres of vineyards, the Renato Ratti winery produces around 150,000 bottles from the traditional denominations of the area: Barolo, Nebbiolo d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, Dolcetto d'Alba.
The modern and innovative philosophy of vinification introduced since the 60's by Renato Ratti, is today in the hands of his son Pietro and his nephew Massimo Martinelli.
