Ruffino was among the first wineries to rediscover the Chianti Superiore appellation, which forms the perfect bridge between simpler Chianti DOCGs and more complex, deeper Chianti Classicos. Wines under the current Chianti Superiore DOCG code are subject to stricter production standards than Chianti DOCG wines.
Color: Ruby red with violet hues. Aroma: An intense bouquet typical of Chianti, with fruity notes of fresh red and black fruits. Tasting profile: Chianti Superiore is a well-structured, medium-bodied wine with elegant tannins and a lingering finish. It has rich flavors of plums, cherries and blueberries as well as hints of black pepper and spice.
This wine pairs beautifully with a wide variety of fresh, seasonal and simply prepared Italian foods. It's especially delicious with Italian sausage, lasagna, and Italian-inspired fare such as meatball sliders and medium-strength cheeses.
