Ruffino Riserva Ducale Chianti Classico Red Wine is a complex and deep red wine blend containing Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon red grape varieties. This red blend is characterized by aromas of tobacco, clove, and Mediterranean herbs. Featuring velvety tannins, firm acidity, and a lingering finish, this Chianti wine is well balanced on the palate. Each bottle of this Ruffino wine is made with a careful selection of the best grapes from the traditional Chianti Classico production region. Secondary malolactic fermentation enhances this wine's velvety texture. Riserva Ducale then ages for 24 months in oak, stainless steel, and concrete vats, and spends an additional three months in bottle before release. Pair a glass of this Italian red wine with favorites like mushroom risotto. Store this red wine blend at room temperature and serve at around 60°F for optimal taste.
