Description

VINEYARDS:
The grapes that make up Ruffino Orvieto Classico come from the best-known DOC grape-growing regions of Orvieto Classico (Umbria). The chalky limestone soil, called tufa, predominant in the Classico area, along with ancient remnants of volcanic soil, gives a unique character to the wines.

AGING:
The grapes were harvested in the second half of August. Then destemmed, crushed, and gently pressed. Once the must was removed from the lees at low temperature, it was fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. When alcoholic fermentation was complete, the wine briefly rested in stainless steel vats at 60°F (16°C) until bottled.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Bright straw yellow.

NOSE:
Orvieto's fruity and floral bouquet is reminiscent of green apples and meadow flowers.

TASTE:
This wine's smooth, refreshing flavors balance beautifully with its structure and acidity. Orvieto also offers a unique mineral character that comes from the chalky limestone soil called tufa. The finish is long and fragrant, with hints of almond.

Food Pairing

Serve Ruffino Orvieto Classico as an aperitif. Or pair it with a wide variety of dishes including crostini topped by roasted tomatoes drizzled with olive oil and garnished with shaved parmigiano cheese; lightly grilled vegetables infused with fennel; thinly sliced prosciutto garnished with basil and olive oil; basic soups such as cold summer squash puree with a light truffle oil infusion; grilled fish with olive oil and rosemary; and mild cheeses such as mozzarella.
