The 2013 Redigaffi benefitted from a long growing season with a late harvest that started past the first week of September. Today, the wine is fresh and vibrant with sweet cherry concentration, a minty note, dried flower and tart cassis or dried cranberry. You get the sense that this wine still has a lot to give over the course of its future evolution. I think the long growing cycle gives a lot in terms of complexity, depth and mouthfeel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Superb wine here, offering aromas of dark berries, tobacco, tar, blackberries and black cherries. It changes all the time and is very complex with hints of meat. On the palate it's full-bodied and very well refined, showing wonderful tannin tension and polished texture. It closes with an amazing finish that lasts for minutes and turns to pure fruit. Better in 2018 but a fabulous young wine to taste now. A modern example of the legendary 1997 but more elegant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\nAzienda 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. 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","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43620810424458,"sku":null,"price":9607.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/57_f360f25e-7987-406c-add7-7ccc5118783a.webp?v=1694267518","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-no\/products\/2013-tua-rita-redigaffi","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
