Ca'Rugate

2021 Valpolicella Ripasso, Campo Bastiglia, Ca’Rugate

Veneto, ItalyVintage: 2020

Ca’Rugate is one of Veneto’s top wineries producing some of Veneto’s best and most exciting wines and this is one!   In the glass, it is uber concentrated with aromas of red fruit cherries with a hint of spice and floral notes. Full-bodied palate with soft tannins, an elegant silky texture and a velvety finish.

This wine is named after Campo Bastiglia, where Ca’Rugate’s vineyard is located, nestled in the hills around Montecchia di Crosara. The fruit is sourced from a selection of the best grapes.  Vinified from a combination of dried and undried grapes. The undried grapes were destemmed and fermented immediately after the harvest. The dried grapes were allowed to dry gently in well-ventilated rooms for approximately four to five months, concentrating the flavours, sweetness and colour. The dried grapes were added later; they were fermented in stainless steel for one week, prior to being pressed. The wine was then transferred to small barrels to finish fermentation. It was then matured in wood for eight to 10 months.

Why we love it

This ‘baby’ Amarone is top of the tree and one of our favourite wine of the year.   Just so drinkable!

Description

The family business has been handed down through the generations of the Tessari family since the early 1900s. The estate was renamed Ca’Rugate in 1986, taking its name from the volcanic hills where the vineyards are located. Now run by the fourth generation, Michele has brought with him a lively, passionate and entrepreneurial spirit. Considerable expansion has taken place in recent years with investment in a new technologically advanced cellar and expansion into the Valpolicella area with the purchase of vineyards in the hilly zone of Montecchia di Crosara. The estate now covers 90 hectares of vineyard. Ca’Rugate has been awarded the prestigious ‘Tre Bicchieri’ award rating from Gambero Rosso multiple times, making it one of the most awarded producers in the competition and has been hailed by the New York Times as one of the “Top Five producers of High-End Soave”.
