Description
A serious name on the Italian wine scene, Ruffino began in 1870. Introduced in 1997, this little Super Tuscan is built around Sangiovese, with Merlot and Cabernet in support. The three varieties are aged separately in small French and American oak casks for approximately 12 months before they are blended and bottled. This wine is always a fantastically popular choice with Vintages customers, and rightly so.

Tasting Notes
A silky and refined red with currant, berry, mineral and dried flower aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, flavorful and delicious. A blend of sangiovese, cabernet sauvignon and merlot. Drinkable now but better in 2017. Score - 94. (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Aug. 5, 2015)
