Ruchè is a rare red grape grown almost entirely around one village in Monferrato, and Luca Ferraris did more than anyone to save it and make it known. It's one of the most perfumed reds in Italy, with wild rose, violet, and dried flowers over red cherry and raspberry, plus white pepper and baking spice. The tannins are soft and the body is medium, so it drinks almost like an aromatic white in red form. It pairs well with charcuterie, mushroom dishes, and lightly spiced food, and it's a good pick for guests who want something they've never tried.
