The 8 estates of Ruffino are the heart of our company. It is here that we produce the wines that best represent Ruffino's philosophy.
The 7 Tuscan estates extend on 1500 hectares of land, with 600 hectares of vineyards. In Friuli Borgo Conventi, a splendid estate in the Collio DOC area, stretches over 30 hectares of vineyards.
On every estate, in Tuscany as well as in Friuli, Ruffino's winemaking heritage is subject to constant improvement thanks to continuous investments in vineyards, cellars and human resources and every day, through research and experiments, Ruffino's winemakers show their creativity and prove that tradition and innovation can, and must, interact in the production of fine quality wines.

Ruffino
Sangiovese Symposium
At the end of May 2006 Ruffino hosted a prestigious Sangiovese Symposium.
This symposium, organized by Ruffino, saw the participation of a selected group of international wine journalists, as well as some of the most renowned viticultural scientists in Italy.
Ruffino's technical staff presented the research conducted on Ruffino's estates in Chianti Classico, Montalcino and Montepulciano, and one of the highlights of the Symposium was without a doubt an exclusive vertical of Riserva Ducale Oro, as well as an interesting tasting of Sangiovese wines from around the world.
In 2007 a mini version of the Symposium will be organized in the United States with two events, one in New York City and one in San Francisco.
