Valli Unite - Ottavio Rube Rosso

€17,95
Ottavio Rubé Rosso’ is a delicious, smile-inducing Dolcetto and Croatina blend. It is named for Ottavio Rubé himself, one of the coop’s founders, whose twinkly-eyed, white-bearded countenance belies a deeply philosophical and idealistic character. Bright fresh fruit nose, red cherry, light-to-medium bodied. Nice grip and savoury flavours on a palate structured by refreshing acidity. A great all rounder, for Tapas/Picnic lunches through to hearty Ragus and Stews. It really delivers a lot of value for money.


COOPERATIVA AGRICOLA VALLI UNITE, Costa Vescovato

Certified organic by ICEA, natural, biodynamic principles

Cooperativa Agricola Valli Unite was established in the late 1970s by three young men—Ottavio Rubé, Enrico Boveri, and Cesare Berutti—who shared a vision for sustainable farming during a time when many were abandoning the countryside for urban opportunities. Nestled in the Tortona Hills of Piedmont, Italy, the cooperative grew from a love of the land and a commitment to organic and biodynamic principles, which are still upheld today.

Now a thriving community of four families and 30 members, Valli Unite oversees over 100 hectares (25ha of vines) of organically cultivated land. The cooperative’s operations extend beyond winemaking, encompassing cheesemaking, animal husbandry, and a range of hospitality services, including agritourism with apartments, a restaurant, camping facilities, music festivals and a farm shop featuring their own organic products.

What never cease to impress with Valli Unite wines, is the vibrancy and sense of place that each offering has not to mention sheer, joyous drinkability.
