More than a century of fine winemaking in Tuscany


Meet the family behind Ruffino, follow the path of our history through time and discover, decade by decade, the events which have led Ruffino to be the company it is today.

 




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!"
