Ruffino Modus Primo Toscana IGT is a premium Super Tuscan red wine showcasing quality fruit from three Tuscan vineyards on Ruffino's Poggio Casciano Estate in Italy's renowned Tuscany wine region. This wine is a sophisticated blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot grapes, representing the best that this centuries-old terroir has to offer.

The wine opens with a bouquet of ripe cherries and orange zest, followed by layered balsamic notes and spicy hints of sweet tobacco and vanilla. On the palate, it reveals deep dark fruit character with notes of black plums, blackberries, sage, and laurel, complemented by juniper berries in the secondary profile. The wine is full-bodied, elegant, and well-structured with dense yet fine-grained tannins, delivering a firm and powerful finish. Extended oak aging integrates the blend while providing tertiary flavors of sweet spice and soft, elegant tannins for a lingering finish.

This is among the highest-rated wines from the Ruffino portfolio, scoring 91-94 points from major critics including Wine Enthusiast, James Suckling, and Wine Spectator. The wine is certified organic and contains 15.5-16% alcohol by volume. Ruffino has been producing exceptional Tuscan wines since 1877 and was appointed official supplier to the Italian royal family in 1890. This wine ages gracefully and is best enjoyed from 2023 onward with rich meat dishes, aged cheeses, or robust Italian cuisine.
