Ruche in Piedmont

Cascina Tavijn ★ 4.3

Ruche di Castagnole Monferrato DOCGGrignolino, Barbera, RucheFounded 1908Nadia VerruaNaturalMonferrato (Asti)

Fourth-generation Scurzolengo estate making native-yeast, nothing-added natural wine. A rare champion of old-vine Grignolino and the obscure Ruche grape.

Tip: Few places take Grignolino and Ruche seriously; Tavijn's are the cult natural versions, sold mostly through tiny importers, so buy at the cellar.
