In 1877, Illario and Leopoldo Ruffino laid the foundations of their dream to make Italian wines from the heart of Tuscany. Medium Ruby red color with aromas of dark berry fruit and earthy spice, blend of 80% Sangiovese with rest Merlot and Cab Sauv. On the palate flavors of black cherry and plum with tobacco, pepper and earthy cedar notes. Full-bodied, well balanced soft drying tannins on a smooth medium+ finish. Grab some Italian food and enjoy the great value wine. Consistent quality, a Fav!!

Blend of 80% Sangiovese and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot. Dark ruby (opaque) color. Aromas and flavors of red cherry, bramble berries and plums, with hints of tobacco, violets, baking spices, roasted nuts and white pepper. Touch of minerality and light oak on the medium-long finish. Soft and gentle tannins and reasonably bright acidity.
