For more than 125 years Ruffino's production philosophy has reflected three fundamental concepts: knowledge of the territory, respect for the grand Tuscan winemaking traditions, our passion for Sangiovese.

The creation of this new red wine, IL DUCALE, was inspired by a product that has contributed to writing to story of Ruffino, the Riserva Ducale.

Il Ducale is a new expression of Tuscan Sangiovese, this wonderful grape variety which never ceases to surprice wine makers worldwide with its versatility and its capacity to adapt to different climates and soils.

Il Ducale is an elegant red wine with a distinctive Tuscan character - a wine to match the taste and dynamic life style of the modern wine lover.

A wine with a century-old heart and a modern soul.
