Ruffino Ducale Riserva Chianti Classico 2010, Tuscany D.O.C.G., Italy: Dried herbs, cedar brush and tart, wild black cherry on this nose of this robust Italian red wine. Ruffino's Chianti Classico Riserva is a dependable bottle year after year. It's aged for 24 months in oak, and oak does not dominate at all. Rather it provides a lovely wisp of smoke on the finish. Pair with a rack of lamb. Drink: 2014-2018. 45195 13.50% XD 750 mL $29.95 Score: 90/100. August 15, 2014
