Tua Rita Toscana Rosso Dei Notri

Tua Rita is located in Suvereto, a small medieval town in the Tuscan province of Livorno, on the coast south of Bolgheri. The winery lies at just 300 feet above sea level, on clay and silty soil. Rosso di Notri is a red blend comprised of 50% Sangiovese and 50% blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. After a gentle pressing, the wine is aged for three months in French oak barriques and stainless steel tanks. Deep ruby red in color, with aromas of black fruits: blackberries, plums and ripe black cherries over more subtle notes of cocoa, licorice and sweet spice. On the palate, the wine is smooth, with silky tannins and bracing acidity, showing structural balance long into the finish.
