Barbera d'Asti DOCGRuchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCGTerre Alfieri DOCG

Gatto Pierfrancesco commands the rolling slopes of Castagnole Monferrato, a Piedmont corner steeped in medieval wine craft. Three generations have stewarded vineyards across three communes, with Pierfrancesco taking the helm in 1993 to champion quality and regional heritage. The firm's signature lies in Ruchè—the rare, ruby-hued expression of this seven-municipality zone—alongside Barbera d'Asti and Terre Alfieri Arneis. The temperate hillside climate, neither extreme in heat nor cold, coaxes complexity from each varietal, anchoring the estate's focus on authentic Piedmont character.
