Winemaker Notes

Ruffino Ducale Chianti Classico Riserva is a ruby red color. The bouquet is elegant, characterized by violet, cherries, wild berries and plums. Hints of spices like tobacco, clove and eucalipto. Riserva Ducale is balanced and constant with delicate tannins. The vibrant acidity, typical of Sangiovese’s grapes, characterizes this wine. The finish is persistent and a good structure completes the entire taste sensation.

Enjoy this timeless Tuscan gem with Italian favorites such as prosciutto and other antipasti, mushroom risotto, pasta Bolognese, and chicken cacciatore. Or, pair it with simple grilled meats and roasted vegetables for a classic Tuscan meal.


Critical Acclaim

James Suckling
This is fine-tannined with berry, chocolate and cedar character. It’s medium-bodied with beautiful fruit and a cherry, toffee and cedar aftertaste. Rich and fresh at the same time.

This is a recognized, well-traveled wine and a mini-ambassador for Chianti Classico around the world. The reasons for the wine's popularity are directly linked to the varietal purity and Tuscan personality on display.
