      Detailed Description

      This wine is at the top of its class in a new generation of super Tuscan producers. Plush and velvety, it opens with rich aromas of chocolate, cherry, peppercorn, black fruit and cola. Thick extraction sets the tone for a lush wine that requires a few more years in the bottle

        Reviews:

        • Wine Advocate: The 2005 Redigaffi (Merlot) is the most finessed, elegant Redigaffi I can recall. This is a Redigaffi that emphasizes clarity and precision over sheer power. Suggestions of new leather, spices, plums, currants, minerals, blueberry jam and toasted oak emerge from this medium-bodied effort. Although the 2005 might not have the structure of previous vintages, the tannins are beautifully balanced and the wine offers terrific overall harmony.
        • Wine Spectator: Beautiful aromas of blackberry, dried currant and Indian spices follow through to a full body, with fine tannins and a long, caressing finish. Wonderful texture. Focused, refined aftertaste of blackberry, brown sugar and spices.

        Producer Information

        Azienda Agricola Tua Rita is a leading Tuscan wine estate located just outside Suvereto in the Colline Metallifere hill country. 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.
