Ruffino is a wine producer based in the Tuscany region of Italy.[1] Founded in 1877, the winery was purchased by the Brescian Folonari family in 1913.[2] In 1999 the Folonari business was split, with the brothers Paolo and Marco retaining the Ruffino name for their operation. In 2004, Constellation Brands purchased a 40% interest in Ruffino for an estimated $80 million.[2]
