Tasting note:

Leuchtendes, sattes Rubin, intensive und feine Nase mit Noten nach Brombeere, Waldhimbeere, dann nach Minze und mediterranen Kräutern. Am Gaumen geprägt von herzhaftem, dichtem Tannin, umwoben von viel süssem Schmelz, feine Würze im hinteren Verlauf, endet auf süssem Tabak, braucht noch etwas Zeit.

Tua Rita:

Tua Rita has cult status and enjoys an excellent reputation. Not far from the Tyrrhenian Sea, picturesquely situated on a hill in the small medieval village of Suvereto, the initially small artisan business has developed into a modern company over the course of time.

The area under cultivation has grown steadily from two hectares at the beginning to 30 hectares now. Founded by Virgilio Bisti and Rita Tua, the fortunes of the estate have been increasingly determined by daughter Simena and her dynamic husband Stefano Frascolla for several years following the death of her father.
The soils are medium-heavy, stony and loamy, contain clay and sand and are also rich in mineral trace elements such as zinc and iron.

On the 50-hectare estate in Maremma, the vineyards located directly behind the winery are characterised by low and moderately sloping hillsides. Depending on the location, the density of the planting varies between 5,000 and 9,000 vines per hectare.
