In the vineyard of Viarigi, which surrounds the small Romanesque church of San Marziano, from which it derives its name, are grown grapes Ruchè, organic.
This is an ancient Piedmontese grape with origin still uncertain, "magical and mysterious but unforgettable" - ndr Enza Cavallero -, and yet "amazing... with its sweet aggressiveness" - ndr Rolf Kaufmann -, semi-aromatic variety, whose cultivation and name are limited to the hilly area of Castagnole Monferrato, from which it derives its name.
After a selective manual harvest normally in the first half of September, follows the traditional vinification of grapes in purity with maceration of 8/10 days, then, the rest for a few months in steel.
Taste and flavour profile The colour is a bright ruby red, with a violet nail, captivating for its aroma all played on floral and fruity notes of raspberry, rose and forest strawberry. In the mouth the taste is satisfying, pleasant with a dry finish.
Our farm covers about 20 hectares, with 11 hectares of vineyards, surrounded by forests and hedges at more than 470 meters above sea level. We’ve always worked organically, and now we’re taking the next step toward becoming a biodynamic farm.
I often think of my father, who followed the traditions of this land with care and dedication. I believe the future depends on keeping that connection to the past alive — taking what’s meaningful and letting it guide us forward.
For us, moving toward biodynamics is a natural choice. It gives a small winery like ours the chance to offer something different from large-scale production — a wine that truly reflects the place it comes from.
