Crivelli Ruche di Castagnole Monferrato

The village of Castagnole Monferrato, just northeast of Asti, is considered the home of the indigenous Ruchè grape. Widely viewed as “Il Principe del Monferrato”, Ruchè is only cultivated in seven villages and Marco Crivelli’s expression of this finicky varietal is considered to be one of the region’s best. Its bouquet is unique; it’s intense, fine, enveloping and pleasantly aromatic, offering a clear idea of the red fruit, floral, and even herbal notes that follow through on the palate. Medium bodied and savory, yet so easy to drink, enjoy this unique red with or without food.
