Ruché is one of Piedmont’s rarest native grape varieties, but it was never taken into consideration until the 1960s.

The credit for its rediscovery goes to a great lover of the area, Don Cauda, the “vine-growing priest” of Castagnole Monferrato. He was a great believer in the potential of this variety, and he was never wrong.

Alan, owner of Cascina Valeggia and Don Cauda’s cousin, being an agronomist and oenologist, decided to plant a ruché vineyard on his plot called La Rej.

His Ruché is thus named after that patch of land that gives a really interesting round and fragrant wine.

Sight

It is pale ruby red in color.

Nose

You can smell the rose and red fruit scents right away.

Taste

It is dry with a floral and round flavor.

Pairing tips

Alan recommends it with goat cheeses. Alternatively, it goes well with main courses of meat and is also great as an aperitif.

To avoid: very rich first courses.

It’s your guy if…

…If you seek fruity, yet full taste in wine.
