2021 Montalbera La Tradizione Ruche di Castagnole Monferrato

Piedmont | Ruche

$ 20.99 $ 25.00

Tasting Note: Grown on their historic Monferrato estate, this Ruché offers a captivating aromatic profile of rose petal and violet, layered with sweet spice. The palate is well-rounded, with flavors of tart plum and raspberry, balanced by a warm, smooth texture and soft tannins. It’s an elegant, harmonious red that reveals a subtle depth with each sip.

About the Producer: Founded in the early 1900s, Montalbera is a family-owned winery in Monferrato and Langhe, with a special commitment to reviving native Piedmont varietals. Since the late 1980s, they’ve been one of the leading producers of Ruché, a once obscure grape with a storied past and unique floral characteristics. Today, Montalbera’s sustainable farming practices and dedication to tradition make their wines a true reflection of Piedmont’s heritage.

Why It Stands Out: An under the radar gem from the heart of Piedmont that captures both tradition and mystery—delivering an aromatic, floral red from one of Italy’s rarest grapes.
