Ca' Rugate

Valpolicella producer of Amarone and Recioto with critical recognition.

Ca' Rugate is a winery in Valpolicella, the storied red wine region of Veneto in Northern Italy. The house produces wines rooted in the region's classical varieties: Garganega for whites, and the Amarone triumvirate of Rondinella, Corvina, and Corvinone for reds. Its Recioto di Soave La Perlara, a sweet white from Garganega, and Punta 470 Amarone della Valpolicella, a dried-grape red, have both earned recognition from major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, and Decanter. These wines reflect the precision and depth that define serious Valpolicella production—where appassimento (the drying of grapes) concentrates flavor and structure into expressions of considerable complexity.
