Wine obtained from Monte Fiorentine vineyards, located to the north of Colle Rugate.
The red tufaceous ground adds a more intense bouquet and a complex flavour with definite grass-like qualities to the typical characteristics of the Soave Classico. Serve cool at a temperature of 10 - 12° C.
|
| Food Match: |
| It combines well with tasty dishes accompanied by soups, vegetable mousses and unseasoned cheeses. |
| Aging: |
| This wine is definitely more robust than the Soave Classico and can be refined in the bottle for 1 or 2 years. |
| Information About Ca' Rugate |
| Ca’ Rugate established by the Tessari family in 1986, takes its name from the volcanic hills where most of the vineyards are to be found.
The Ca’ Rugate vineyards cover 40 hectares, 30 of which are located within the commune of Monteforte d’Alpone in the rugged heart of Soave Classico; and 10 hectares in the commune of Montecchia di Crosara in nearby Valpolicella.
For many generations, these gentle sloping hills have been a cradle for high quality wines; due to the unique sunny microclimate and rich volcanic soil.
Ca’ Rugate uses only indigenous grape varieties such as Garganega, and Trebbiano di Soave for white wines; and Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone for reds.
In the vineyard, they use modern pruning techniques, along with careful canopy management and green pruning; while the latest vinification techniques bring out distinctive aromas and refined flavours in the wines. |
