Venus Toscana Rosato Aqua produced by Toscana Ruffino shows a beautiful pale pink color in the glass. on the nose it expresses a very fine perfume in which strawberry, a subtle spiciness and a glacial touch stand out. The attack in the mouth is gentle prelude to a decisive and well designed sip, with a particular character. The finish stands out with its purely mineral profile. A rosé that winks at Provence but returns a vigorous Tuscan character. Excellent for cold appetizers, with roasted fish, with fish soups, with roasted volaglia and crostini of the fifth quarter.\n \n This wine opens with intense aromas of fresh white peach, pineapple, and passion fruit. Each sip of this pleasantly fruity, fine wine offers bright notes of tropical fruit, including peach, pear, and pineapple flavors, complemented by hints of white flower and sage.\n \n Producer Information\n \n Ruffino is a large wine company based in Tuscany, producing wines from several regions in Central and Northern Italy. The company was founded in 1877 when cousins Ilario and Leopoldo Ruffino established a small winery in Pontassieve near Florence. By the 1880s the company was regularly winning international awards and, in 1890, it became an official supplier to the Italian royal family. Ruffino purchased its first estate after World War II, and became the first to own estates in Chianti Classico, Montepulciano and Montalcino. The Gretole estate is almost entirely devoted to the flagship Chianti Classico Riserva Ducale Oro, while the Greppone Mazzi estate in Montalcino provides the company's Brunello. It now farms around 600 hectares (1483 acres) split across six Tuscan properties; generic Chianti and Toscana IGT in all three colors are also produced. In Veneto, the La Duchessa and Ca' del Duce estates were acquired in 2019. Here, 130 hectares (321 acres) are organically farmed and produce approximately 35,000 hectoliters each vintage. Constellation Brands have owned the company since 2011, having initially acquired a 40 percent stake in 2004.
