Tasting Note

Il Leo has vibrant and generous aromas reminiscent of violet and cherry with a well-balanced palate, positioned between a traditional rustic Chianti and a modern fruit-led style of wine.

Product Notes

Ruffino Il Leo Chianti Superiore is an enticing Italian red wine boasting a vibrant ruby colour and emanating an aromatic bouquet of red fruits, dusky spices, and subtle hints of oak. This wine offers a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary wine styles, featuring Sangiovese grapes, which lend a bright acidity and refined tannins to the palate. The opulent taste showcases layers of ripe cherries, starch plums and a hint of vanilla, leading to a protracted and balanced finish. Best savoured with Italian cheeses, red meat dishes or hearty pasta, Ruffino Il Leo Chianti Superiore captivates even the most discerning of wine lovers.
