[message]Description
Riserva Ducale has been one of Ruffino’s flagship products since 1927, always bearing the same label, but still evolving over the last century. Riserva Ducale tells the tale of its land: this wine was one of the symbols of the foundation of the Chianti Classico Doc, always faithful to the original principles of the Chianti winemaking. In 1890, the Duke of Aosta, having crossed the Alps, finally tasted this wine that had become so famous in only 13 years. He loved it so much that he appointed Ruffino as supplier to the royal household.
