Torgaio is one of Ruffino's most innovative wines, and yet its fragrant, youthful character perfectly reflects a time honoured Tuscan wine style: a red wine easy to drink, floral, inviting - a wine to share with family and friends - a wine for many occasions.

The grapes for the production of Torgaio are cultivated in selected hillside vineyard located in the heart of Tuscany.

In Torgaio the distinct character of the Sangiovese grape reveals its softest, most charming side, especially if this wine is served slightly chilled.
