Ruffino - Chianti Classico - Riserva Ducale Oro Gran Selezione 2017

Key words: Elegant / Complex / Refined

The wine: Riserva Ducale Oro represents a reference point for all of Chianti. Created in 1947 to honor the Duke of Aosta, this delicious cuvée mainly composed of the Sangiovese grape variety was aged for 36 months (part of which in oak barrels and tuns) and is only produced in the best vintages. This bottle reveals all its finesse through elegant notes of cherry, plum, leather and spices (pepper, cinnamon, licorice). An iconic wine to be enjoyed now or left to mature in the cellar for many years.
