Ageing

Aged in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.

Tasting profile

A young, bright, lively and versatile rosé, fresh and easy-drinking.

Serving and pairing

Served at 8–12 °C. It pairs with many dishes, especially fish, cured meats and appetizers.

Label / history

Rosatello has been made with a distinctive taste since its creation, at a time when most wines were either red or white. It is now sold with a new, modern look. Ruffino was founded in 1877 in Pontassieve, near Florence, by cousins Ilario and Leopoldo Ruffino.
