The Italian production area for this sensational wine is Piedmont. The grape variety used is Ruché, which represents tradition for the Montalbera winery and the region. After vinification, which takes place using the traditional method, the aging process typical of wines made from overripe grapes is developed. This wine brings out the delicate colors, the intriguing aromas, that beautiful feeling of softness. These are the characteristics of the best Ruché, perfectly synthesized in the "Selezione Bricco Montalbera" thanks to a skilful vinification capable of assembling the best grapes of the harvest with a small percentage of raisin grapes. Montalbera's Ruché di Castagnole Monferrato DOCG "Laccento" is a wine of great depth and charm, enveloping and generous.
