Sant’Agata

Piemonte's Barbera and Ruché, rooted in Asti's volcanic soils.

Sant'Agata is situated in Asti, in the heart of Piemonte's rolling hills. The winery focuses on two distinctive regional varieties: Barbera and Ruché, both native to the Monferrato zone. Its Cavalè Barbera d'Asti Superiore expresses the grape's characteristic structure and dark fruit intensity, while the Ruché offerings—Il Cavaliere and Pro Nobis—showcase the variety's floral aromatics and mineral precision. Ruché, once nearly extinct, has found renewed expression in the hands of committed producers across the region. Wine Spectator has rated Sant'Agata's portfolio, affirming the technical quality of these terroir-driven expressions. The winery's selection reflects a commitment to Piemonte's lesser-known but compelling indigenous grapes.
