Brillant straw yellow
The bouquet is very distinctive: fruity and flowery with hints of fresh picked meadow flowers, citrus fruits, golden apple and sage with a characteristic mineral touch in the finish.
The taste is lightly sweet and smooth thanks to the balance between structure, acidity and fruity notes. The aftertaste is long and fragrant, with neat hits of fresh almond due to the chalky soil of the Orvieto production area.
Orvieto's fruity and floral bouquet is reminiscent of green apples and meadow flowers. Its smooth, refreshing flavors balance beautifully with the wine's structure and acidity. Orvieto also offers a unique mineral character that comes from the chalky and white limestone soil called 'tufa.' This wine ends with a long, fragrant finish with hints of almond. 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 purée with a light truffle oil infusion; grilled fish with olive oil and rosemary; and mild cheeses such as mozzarella.
