Tua Rita Rosso Dei Notri 2019 750ml

Deep ruby red in color, with aromas of black fruits, namely 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.

Pair this wine with prosciutto-wrapped asparagus, spice rubbed chicken, or lasagna Bolognese with béchamel sauce.

92 Points - Wine Spectator

Tua Rita is best known for its Redigaffi SuperTuscan, however the estate produces a wide range of wines and its Rosso dei Notri is a good-value entry into the estate's wines. Originally the product of a bountiful harvest, it is made from all four varieties the estate works with: Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. With a fragrant potpourri nose of red fruits and herbs, it follows up in the mouth with vanilla- and cream-laden flavours of sweet cherry, raspberry, wild herb, chocolate and black pepper. The acidity brings freshness to wrap it all up and cleanse the palate, making you want to reach for another sip. A delicious, easy-drinking Tuscan red.

92 Points - James Suckling

A medium-bodied red with blueberries, walnuts and a slightly bitter orange note. It’s racy and linear. Smoky at the end. Drinkable now, but a little age will make it even better. Try after 2021.
