Tua Rita Giusto di Notri 2020

15.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

“A blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot, the 2020 Giusto di Notri is a ripe, bold and generous wine. The DNA of the wine has changed slightly over the years to favor the Cabernet Franc (with an increased percentage) over the Merlot, which has fallen from a previous high of about 35% to 40% of the blend a decade ago. What I like about this wine is that it manages an elegant, almost understated interpretation of a hot and dry vintage. The tannins are especially well managed in this situation. In 2020, Tua Rita’s harvest was finished by October 6th.” 2024 – 2040
96 Points, Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, May 2023

Plenty of berry and chocolate fruit with some subtle hazelnut and spice undertones. Dried flowers, too. Medium-bodied with a pretty core of fruit and a Savory, succulent finish. Herbs with chocolate at the end. Solid centre-palate. Needs three or four years to mellow, but it’s already very attractive. 96 Points, James Suckling

Giusto was the first wine to be made at the estate, in 1992.the indicative blend is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% each of Cabernet Franc & Merlot. Aging takes place in French oak barriques for 15 to 18 months with a mix of new and second passage.

Tua Rita stands as one of Tuscany’s most iconic names. Nestled on the Tyrrhenian coast, at the end of a 10km serpentine corridor of the Val di Cornia. it was the success of the estate that put this area, not previously renowned for a celebrated wine culture, in the international spotlight. Located in Suvereto, just south of the famed Bolgheri, the same coastal and stylistic DNA can be traced through the wines. The estate was founded in 1984 by Rita Tua and her husband, Virgilio Bisti, and is now run by their son-in-law Stefano Frascolla and their grandson Giovanni. While the family wanted to produce the best wine they could, they did not have ambitions to create the iconic brand that it is today with over 45 hectares under vines. From their humble beginnings though, they have now created a name of international stature and become one of the few Italian wineries to have multiple 100-point wines. Legendary winemaker Luca d’Attoma, still oversees winemaking - as he has done since the early days of his career and the estate.
