TORCHIO 1953

Barbera d'Asti DOCGRuchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCGTerre Alfieri DOCG

Torchio 1953 commands three prestigious Piedmont appellations across a region of distinction. The house produces Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato DOCG from the rare Ruchè grape, alongside Terre Alfieri DOCG reds and whites spanning Nebbiolo and Arneis, and Barbera d'Asti DOCG—each aged to legal minimum across 165 Astigiano municipalities. This portfolio demands mastery of terroir translation: from the Ruchè zone's seven communes to the broader Barbera canvas, Torchio navigates Piedmont's most regulated reds with technical precision and generational know-how embedded in its name.
