Vineyard | The vineyards of Tua Rita are located in Notri, a hamlet just outside of beautiful Suvereto in southern Tuscany. It was here that Rita Tua and her husband once started this illustrious estate. Indeed, they were one of the first to start planting merlot, syrah and cabernet sauvignon. This led to a 100 point score from Robert Parker in 2000 for the Redigaffi 2007. The valley in which the vineyards are located enjoys the cooling sea breeze during the day and the wind from the land at night. |

Vinification | The super-Tuscan par excellence, but often forgotten. This 100% merlot is a wine made in French oak. The wine is made after a rigorous selection in the vineyard. The wine matures for 18-20 months in new French oak. The barrels here are rotated instead of battonage. This ensures minimal contact with oxygen during aging. |
