The red wine Chianti Classico Riserva Ducale Oro, vintage 1999 from the winery Ruffino has been rated in 2016 by Ulrich Sautter with 90 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Sangiovese from the region Tuscany in Italy.
Very berry and open, almost Australian, eucalyptus, ethereal, spicy, almost somewhat vegetal, leafy notes - but definitely positive. Quite feisty on the palate, soft body, fine-grained tannins, noticeable alcohol, supple and round, very restrained acidity, almost atypical for a Chianti, certainly delicate on the palate and fresh, but also a little awkward. Despite its fragrant character, this is the shortest wine in the series in terms of aroma.
