Ruffino Chianti Superiore D.O.C.G. (Flask) 2014 1lt (Case of 3)
Description
- Joe's Tasting Note: "This wine is literally a fiasco. Well, it comes in one. The straw-wrapped bottle is a ‘fiasco’ and brings the charm of an Italian trattoria to your kitchen table. Alongside the fruity aromas of cherry and plum in a mid-weight wine. It’s great with tomato-based dishes, long-cooked pasta sauces and veal.
- Ruffino was among the first wineries to rediscover the Chiant Superiore appellation.
- The grapes for this wine are sourced from vineyards located in two of the most renowned areas for production of Chianti: Valdarno and Monteriggioni.
- Ruby red in colour with violet hues.
- The bouquet is intense and typical of Chianti. Fruity notes of fresh plums and black cherries are well matched with flavors of black pepper and sweet spice.
- Intense and medium-bodied, Chianti Superiore presents elegant tannins that perfectly match its fruity body. The finish is persistent and shows notes of fresh cherry and blueberry.
- Food Pairing Suggestions: 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.

With its long history, Ruffino is a living symbol of the quality progress which the entire Italian wine sector has undertaken through the twentieth century. Ruffino's production philosophy is based on two leading concepts: The quality of its wines and the expression of the territories where these wines are produced - a winemaking art which Ruffino has refined throughout the decades. With the desire to bring the best quality the Tuscan territory has to offer to wine lovers all over the world, Ruffino has contributed significantly to the creation of the fine image which Italian winemaking holds on the international wine scene today. Chianti Ruffino, followed by Riserva Ducale, was one of the very first wines to cross the Italian border and introduce Italian wine to the world. Present in over 85 countries covering 5 continents, Ruffino is an international leader of great wines "Made in Italy!"

Disgusting taste, have no idea what kind of grapes they use, probably ones found by the roadside.
