Ruche's Denomination

“Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato” is a small DOCG, covering seven municipalities, some only partially:  Castagnole Monferrato, Montemagno, Viarigi, Refrancore, Scurzolengo, Portacomaro and Grana.

In 2016 there were 136 hectares (they were 103 in 2011 and only 10 in 1988), 35 companies and more than 77,000 bottles produced against 499,000 in 2011. The 35% of the wine is exported all over the world.

Ruchè: must be written with the grave stress and, even if Piedmont is close to France, must be pronounced “rookè” and not “rooshè”.

Castagnole Monferrato, in the Province of Asti, is one of those villages with “name and surname” to distinguish them from other villages (Castagnole Lanze) and claiming to be part of Monferrato: a region which had been for seven centuries a small state, celebrated since the Middle Ages for its production of fine wines.

Ruchè is a red grape variety. The grape ripens in mid-September. The berry is medium-sized. The fruit is very sweet and rich in aromatic precursors, especially terpyneols. It is usually vinified in red to obtain a dry wine, slightly aromatic, with hints of rose, violet and spices, ruby ​​red, full-bodied and slightly tannic.
