Red
Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato
By Marco Crivelli, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
The estate's flagship red, from the Ruchè variety grown around Castagnole Monferrato. Ruby with purple tones, with a geranium-leaf aroma and a soft, velvety palate.
Tasting notes
Ruby red with pronounced purple shades, violet reflections when young turning to bright orange with age. Fine, persistent, intense, slightly aromatic bouquet, with ripe cherry and apricot blended together; the signature is geranium leaf, most marked in the best vintages. Elegant, velvety palate with full, balanced body and relatively low acidity, soft and easy to drink.
