Winery Description:

Ca' Rugate is a renowned Veneto winery deeply rooted in the Rugate hill near Brognoligo, where the Tessari family has cultivated vines for four generations since the early 20th century.

90 hectares of vineyards are spanning across the celebrated Soave Classico, Valpolicella, and Lessini Durello zones.

Since 1986, Ca' Rugate has grown from a local producer to an international name, supported by a modern winery opened in 2002 and a commitment to quality and sustainability.
