RUFFINO<br />

Tuscany<br />

www.ruffino.<strong>com</strong><br />

We are very fortunate at MMI to have 3 well established Tuscan houses and at the core of these is Ruffino. Ruffino were the original<br />

creators of the ‘Chianti straw-flask’ that was popular in the late 1980’s and 1990’s. Modern day Ruffino have got rid of the straw casing<br />

but continue to make a style of wine that customers immediately recognize as classic Chianti. At MMI, we purchase the majority<br />

of the wines from the Ruffino range so that you can choose a Chianti to suit your price requirements. Each of the Ruffino Chianti’s<br />

(Classic Chianti, Aziano, Riserva Ducale, Riserva Ducale Oro) has foundation characteristics of bright red fruit, firm tannins, and soft<br />

cherry that are must have Chianti notes. As you go up the range in terms of price, the wines take on more <strong>com</strong>plex oak characteristics<br />

and richer palate depth, as one would expect.<br />

Aside from the reds, Ruffino make some great white wines. Try the Galestro Griffe when looking for a easy, simple, clean style of<br />

white wine and a great introduction to the world of Tuscan whites.<br />

ANTINORI<br />

Tuscany & Umbria<br />

www.antinori.it<br />

A trip to Florence will enlighten any wine drinker to the history behind this grand family and grand winery. As you walk through<br />

the quaint, delicate streets the name ‘Antinori’ pops up frequently – Piazza Antinori, Strada Antinori, Ristorante Antinori. The name<br />

Antinori is as much part of Florence as the opera and there are few Italian families who have so much presence in Italy.<br />

More importantly for us, the wines reflect this great tradition and always deliver on quality. From the mighty Tignanello, a pioneer<br />

of the Super Tuscan movement to the Villa Antinori Rosso, there is top end wine making across the board.<br />
