The 1971 Riserva Ducale represents the classic flagship of the house, a wine that has existed since 1927. Its name originates from a high recognition granted by the Duke of Aosta, authorizing the winery to present itself as an official supplier to the ducal household.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis red wine originates from Tuscany, an iconic wine region with roots dating back to the Etruscans. More specifically, it comes from Chianti Classico, the historic core area situated between Florence and Siena. The 1971 vintage in this area is described as powerful, achieving a score of 93 points. The wine is produced within this original zone, where the company utilizes its vast farms located in Greve, Passo dei Pecorai, and San Polo in Chianti.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe foundation of this wine is Sangiovese, the undisputed main grape of Tuscany and one of Italy's most important varieties. It is widely cultivated across regions such as Tuscany, Umbria, Emilia-Romagna, and California. In Chianti Classico, Sangiovese is the defining grape of the appellation. Today, Ruffino is owned by the American company Constellation Brands, which took over from the Folonari family in 2011, continuing the production of classic Tuscan wines on a globally oriented scale.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruffino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57423763669318,"sku":null,"price":195.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-1355_0e951357-dff5-451f-b22d-dbaa14500418.jpg?v=1790069351","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.nl\/en\/products\/chianti-classico-ruffino-1973","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
