What is more decadent, luxurious and delicious than truffles? This dish marries truffle oil with a mild Italian sausage, flavour-packed porcini mushrooms and perfectly al dente Barilla penne, creating a pasta that’s perfect to serve for a special occasion.

*Best served with Ruffino Chianti DOCG

Taste profile: Ruffino's original wine, and one of the world's most recognized Tuscan wines. The wine is extra dry, medium-bodied and well-structured. Enjoy aromas and flavours of chestnut, leather, rye bread and red berry fruit, with spicy notes and a touch of pepper. Also goes well with wild boar ragu, grilled steak or roasted vegetables.
