2022 La Miraja Ruché di Castagnole Monferrato

5/10/2024 - AlphaMikeFoxtrot Likes this wine: 90 points

Super aromatic! Haven't had Ruché in a while and forgot how nice they can smell. Violet petals, root beer, church incense, orange zest, ripe red cherries and cranberries on the nose. High intensity of aromas. The flavors are pretty consistent with the aromas, except there's no root beer on the palate. Instead, there's a constant bitterness, almost like in Amaro. Medium + intensity of flavors.

Medium body with medium + acid and medium - tannins. Think these are mostly meant to drink now - at least, I don't see it getting any better wth bottle age. Very food friendly, and made a great pairing with braised beef shanks.

New to me, similarities to an early drinking nebbiolo or barbera, a little riper with similarly earthy tannins

Notes of rustic cherry with great acid. Such a cool varietal to drink.

Had with T and I while watching the movie Heat (1995).

Cherry pop-tart, cranberry. Served lightly chilled, and really enjoyable. Simple, but high quality.

Light-bodied, loads of red rose petals, and pomegranate. Finishes with a hint of St. Germain liqueur.

Really interesting wine. Earthy notes and a sense of mushroom. Cheese flavor and aroma, licorice as well. In the background there is some mint. Cherry fruit

This is actually the Riserva, and apparently something like only 30 cases of this make it to the US. Very floral aromatics. In an unusual direction. A specific white flower mixed with red. Interesting, fairly grippy on the palate.

Very interesting wine, truly a unique experience. It has such an interesting combination of flavors, with a mix of bright/tart red fruit, sweetness of a fortified wine like port but not quite as much sugar, and baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. I prefer it cold, best out of the fridge and rested for a few minutes. It’s not bad, just not my desired flavor profile. I’m glad I tried it but will not be buying again.

Light plus ruby. Slightly cloudy. Black tea and strawberry with lots of earthiness. Although a lighter wine it did have a little bit of tannic structure. Decent with our charcuterie board. Didn't pair with this Ovalie Cendrée aged goat cheese though.

I know it’s borderline heretical to grow Chardonnay in Piedmont, and I do love the local Arneis, Erbaluce, and Timorasso —but this wine is a triumph. It’s aromatic and expressive on the nose, surprisingly so for a young Chard: there is green apple, lemon, and some floral notes. On the palate, it’s bright and zippy, alive; those same flavors feature alongside a hint of almond. It’s beautifully balanced, coats the mouth with perfect weight and length. I have enjoyed several previous vintages of this wine and once again think it’s very well deserving of a 92 or higher. If you enjoy cool climate Chardonnay you will love this.

Food pairing: tuna noodle with fried capers and roasted pine nuts. Perfection.

Cherry, dried flowers, bright and clean on the nose. Lightweight, but surprisingly grippy, chewy tannins. Some herbal bitterness that's very pleasant. Probably really good with food.

What a fantastic bottle. Served chilled. Wouldn't let this go much longer, and frankly probably should have drunk about a year ago for best results.

Light plus ruby. Good start and great with homemade pizza. M didn't like the nose at first but it grew on her. I got rose hips, black tea, cranberry and forest floor. A little bit of wild strawberry or cherry in the palate. Nice mouthfeel too. Best with a slight chill.
Last glass was my fave.

Fun, fresh, easy drinking, with a touch of effervescence and brambly red fruit. Do yourself a favor: give it a quick chill, kick back, and don't think too much about it -- just enjoy!

A wine of restraint, elegant, and poise. Classic aromas of smoke, leather, and flowers. Light to medium body with a bit of plum and black cherry (i.e., the lighter end of the dark fruit spectrum) that is held together by a mineral core and nice streak of acidity.

A powerful, attractive nose of lychee, dark cherries, and floral aromatics that just leaps out of the glass. The palate is fruit-driven, but brooding, veering towards darker fruit and spices, but retains a sense of freshness on its long finish.

A pretty typical piemonte of this style. Nose cranberry, strawberry, and floral tones - violet, also herbal and a bit of earthy mushrooms. Palate balanced, if a tad forward, tannins there for sure, mineral on mid to late palate following a fruit driven open. Great acid underlies it. Long finish.
