Ruffino Chianti 2013
Tuscany, ItalyLight spice, cherry and raspberry complete the nose of Ruffino's entry-level Chianti - a consistent buy year after year. Dusty cherry, a touch of meat and a bit of old wood must on the nose. Cherry and tobacco rule the medium palate and though tannins are a touch on the stemmy side, there's a redeeming perfumed strawberry note to the end, clipped as it is. Simple and identifiable, made well on a large scale.Tasted: 10 July 2015Tasted by: Prices:BC | $14.29 | 750ml | BCLS |
