It is best known for its cult Redigaffi single-variety IGT Toscana wine made from Merlot. The wine is a regular feature in top global auction catalogues, and the 2000 vintage was the first Italian wine to be awarded a perfect 100-point rating by US wine critic Robert Parker. The estate was founded in 1984 by Rita Tua and her husband Virgilio Bisti, beginning with a two-hectare (five-acre) plot at Notri, two kilometers (1.2 miles) due south of the town of Suvereto. This has grown to cover 30 hectares (75 acres) of vineyards, which are farmed organically. The silty, clay- and mineral-rich soils seem to be reflected in the wines themselves, which show hints of saltiness and unique nuances of iron in the aromatics. After harvest, the fruit is hand-picked and transported in small baskets to the winery sorting tables before being fermented in wooden vats. It is then transferred by gravity to the barrel hall underneath, where all wines mature for at least 18 months. A mixture of new and old oak is used – the top wines are aged in new oak, and the rest in a combination of new and old oak, and stainless steel. Along with Redigaffi, Tua Rita makes a Bordeaux Blend wine called Giustro di Notri, which is regarded by the estate as its signature wine. The range also includes Per Sempre, a varietal Syrah, and Perlato del Bosco, a varietal Sangiovese (although before 2011 it also featured Cabernet Sauvignon). Tua Rita's entry-level wine is the Rosso dei Notri, a Cabernet – Merlot – Sangiovese blend from the most recently planted vines. There are two white wines in the range: Lodano, a blend of international varieties including Riesling and Chardonnay, and Perlato del Bosco, which uses local varieties like Vermentino.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-14T16:53:03-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-10T12:14:15-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","NK100324","Other_Wine","Producer_Tua Rita","Region_Tuscany","Source_Hedonism0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":109999,"price_min":109999,"price_max":109999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44463698706570,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2001 | Tua Rita | Redigaffi","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":109999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_7b661d38-dcee-49d0-af71-1b8c885d8fc7.jpg?v=1710087280"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_7b661d38-dcee-49d0-af71-1b8c885d8fc7.jpg?v=1710087280","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2001 | Tua Rita | Redigaffi at CaskCartel.com","id":26439835156618,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_7b661d38-dcee-49d0-af71-1b8c885d8fc7.jpg?v=1710087280"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/45_7b661d38-dcee-49d0-af71-1b8c885d8fc7.jpg?v=1710087280","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2001 | Tua Rita | Redigaffi\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2001 Tua Rita Redigaffi reveals aromas of black cherries, wild blackberries, myrtle, black olives, capers, spicy bay leaves, and assorted Mediterranean herbs.
