Winemaker Notes
The Ruggeri Corsini estate was founded in 1995 thanks to a passion for the countryside and a love for great wines. Run by Loredana Addari and Nicola Argamante, who both have a degree in Agriculture and both specialized in Viticulture and Oenology.
n the beginning, our production only included the classical Langa wines such as Dolcetto d’Alba, Barbera d’Alba and Barolo, which, over the course of the years, have been flanked by other Langhe wines, new reds, a rosé and a white wine. In 1996, they produced 6000 bottles, mainly sold abroad. Exportation to the USA began in 1997, later spreading to various other nations. Currently, it is possible to find our wines in the USA (main market), in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Great Britain, France, Belgium, Holland, Japan, Australia and obviously Italy.
Attracting the most glory, prestige and fame to the Piedmont region, Nebbiolo in all of its expressions—Barolo, Barbaresco, Roero, Ghemme and Gattinara—creates a complex wine, truly unique for its delicate qualities combined with strength and a great potential to improve over time.
But Nebbiolo isn’t all there is to red wine from Piedmont! Barbera is the most planted variety and historically most popular as a dependable, food-friendly, everyday wine.
Beyond these two, a surprising number of red varieties call Piedmont their home. Worth a try include Dolcetto for its bold concentration and aromas of spice cake. Other grapes to investigate include Freisa, Croatina, Brachetto, Grignolino and Pelaverga.
