About Ruffino:
In 1877, Illario and Leopoldo Ruffino laid
the foundations of their dream to make the most known and loved Italian wines in
the world from the heart of Tuscany. At their winery in Pontassieve, just
outside of Florence, they began producing wines according to a strict quality
standard and a rigorous technical research. Soon, Ruffino became an
international symbol of the Chianti region, and won numerous awards, including
the prestigious gold medal at the Bordeaux Wine Fair in 1895, affirming the
quality of its wine.
In 1913, the Folonari family purchased Ruffino and brought new talent, energy
and enthusiasm into the company. They started on a nearly century-long pursuit
to develop a collection of estates in Tuscany, all of which matched the standard
of quality and uniqueness which was the trademark of Ruffino wine.
Over the last sixty years, Ruffino has established seven prominent estates in
Tuscany, all situated within the major DOCG production regions including
Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Chianti and Chianti
Classico. Today, Ruffino continues to meld century-long Tuscan traditions with
new state-of-the-art cellar technology and modern winemaking for an ideal
symbiosis with the energy of the contemporary Italian
lifestyle. |

Deep minus-intensity ruby core with a medium ruby rim. Thick, slow

developed with lots of oakspice, dark cherries and with notes of
cinnamon (probably a combination of alcoholic sweetness & general
spiciness). Initially closed, after 1,5-2 hours in decanter the

dark cherries. Palate: Dry, crisp acidity, medium+ level of large,
ripe tannins, high alcohol, full body, medium plus flavor intensity;
Morello dark cherry, ligonberry, spice. Medium+ length, complex.
A wine of very good quality, and structure, but needs time, temperature
and apparently decanting. Balanced, bordering on elegant, structured,
with decent length and complexity with medium inttensity of flavor.
Still closed. No doubt improving a few years, and will keep 3-5,
although I lack expereince of Brunello di Montalcino to say for
sure. Tasted in Riedel Vinum Chianti-stems and consumed with a good
