The family business has been handed down through the generations of the Tessari family since the early 1900s. The estate was renamed Ca' Rugate in 1986, taking its name from the volcanic hills where the vineyards are located. The estate now covers 90 hectares of vineyard. Ca' Rugate has been awarded the prestigious 'Tre Bicchieri' award rating from Gambero Rosso multiple times, making it one of the most awarded producers in the competition and has been hailed by the New York Times as one of the "Top Five producers of High-End Soave".

An intense and aromatic bouquet of wild flowers, ripe fruit and an elegant hint of almond lead to a beautifully textured and richly-fruited palate. The grapes are sorted to ensure only the highest quality fruit is vinified. 50% fermented in 225-litre barriques, and the remainder in 50-hectolitre barrels, where the wine is then matured on its lees for six to eight months, giving the wine exceptional texture and complexity.
