La Cantina
The Azienda Agricola Runchét agricultural company was established in 2012, in Treiso, on the UNESCO hills, by Andrea and Beatrice.
It is SQNPI-certified, the ministerial hallmark of Sustainable Quality, and is therefore able to ensure the cultivation of products, in this case grapes, according to agronomic techniques that respect the environment and human health.
After years of experience both in important local wineries and in foreign agricultural and viticultural production centers, (Australia, Chile, New Zealand), the young Piedmontese couple realized their dream of producing a range of wines according to their personal interpretation of making wine the way it used to be made.
Thus, the philosophy is to make tradition contemporary through the use of modern techniques, knowledge and skills gained through experience.
The wines produced are Langhe classics including the important Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG: Barbera d’Alba DOC, Langhe DOC Chardonnay, Moscato d’Asti DOCG, Langhe DOC Nebbiolo.
A dream with ancient origins
The farmstead within which the winery is located, known as Cascina Ronchetti existed in the early 1900s and is owned by Domenico, formerly a merchant of the estate grapes and Beatrice’s father, a supporter and important helper in the implementation of the Runchèt project.
