Found at Cucina Enoteca in Del Mar - San Diego County by the glass and at the other locations of this Restaurant group. Well not a 10 but for the money a solid 9. 🌹 roses, violets, cherry and Earl Grey tea. Ruche is a rare Italian grape from Piedmont often you get a shit wine from this very small appellation - this one is good. — 9 years ago

Medicinal and savory, opening up to an almost Burgundian prettiness about two hours in. It didn’t last, but altogether fascinating (if not consistently pleasurable). — 8 years ago

Pleasant surprise - never heard of this wine which is apparently a kitchen sink Piedmont blend but it works oh so well - gorgeous purity of red (cherry) & darker fruit, rich ripe concentrated w/caressing tannins with some spice & lifted floral notes and decent enough acidity to tie it all together on the palate and thru finish. Absolutely Fantastic — 9 years ago

If you love Italian wines or, going further, Piemonte, you owe it to yourself to try this wine, made of the rare Ruché grape (100 ha planted as of 2010 according to the Oxford Companion). It is rather beguiling, and despite its bitter finish and tannic undergirding, reveals its charms easily. An opaque nebbiolo garnet colour. Immediate burst of citrus on the front palate. Nose of spices and leather. Bracing acidity, long tannic finish. Utterly fascinating. — 9 years ago

Thought this was naff last year- but this is brilliant. Barbera/Ruche- bright, floral, deep fruit. Enough bite to keep it interesting. Happy gear. — 11 years ago

2013 vintage; grape is called Ruché Castagnole Monferrato grown north of Barolo. Small percentage of grapes (5%) are dried before pressed, like appassiemento, and rest are harvested late. Quite viscous with red brick color of light intensity; interesting intense nose of dark dried fruits and raspberries; same fruits in the mouth with added silky tannins, liquorice, acidity and long finish. Me likey! — 11 years ago

It responds well to the definition of this wine: medium bodied with a light aromatic accent. This one adds a distinctive flowery flavor, with a presence of rose and a little violet. — 9 years ago

Is similar in body and texture as zinfandel. But instead of strawberry notes of wild berry and pepper. Pleasant floral aromas, and soft finish. — 11 years ago
