Product Description:
"Rich golden colour, with a fine aroma of exotic fruits. Full and rich in flavour, this is a structured wine which will reach its peak after 1-2 years in bottle.
Ca' Rugate is an agricultural business in Veneto which produces local wines that express in a simple and natural way the land in which they are grown, that of Soave Classico, Valpolicella and Lessini Durello. The company has known how to innovate, reinterpreting traditions and investing in the vineyards most suited to the cultivation of historical vine types. Its history goes back 100 years, bound inseparably to the Tessari family for four generations, and to the dark and volcanic land of the Rugate hill, near the centre of Brognoligo, where it all began." - Winery
