Wine from Rufina
Filter
Rufina is one of the Italian communes in the Provence of Florence, in the Tuscany region. Rufina is the area that produces Chianti Rufina, and while it is the smallest sub zone for Chianti, it boasts a reputation of being one of the best. Rufina’s location in Central Italy situates on the hills overlooking the Sieve River. Rufina is fortunate to experience a continental climate, consisting of lengthy, hot summers with little precipitation that produce excellent soils. The heat allows for a more a full-bodied wine, while the cool nights that Rufina experiences foster flavor development and help to retain acidity. Rufina is approximately 1312 feet above sea level, which creates an ideal environment for growing the Sangiovese grape. The Chianti produced in Rufina will have excellent structure due to the higher acidity and display refined fruit throughout.
