Rufina is a small town in the Mugello valley east of Florence where the people lead a peaceful life. You will find a selection of shops and restaurants here, and also supermarkets, including a very well stocked COOP. If the name is familiar to you, it is likely to be because Rufina is one of the seven areas that comprises the Chianti wine producing district. The relationship between price and quality chianti wine from Rufina is often quite advantageous, and manufacturers such as Frescobaldi, Selvapiana, Colognole, Travignoli and Fattoria di Basciano all make excellent wine, and the oil from the area.
