Tua Rita Per Sempre Syrah 2020

Tua Rita Per Sempre Syrah 2020 is a rare and powerful expression of Italian viticulture, widely considered one of the finest Syrahs produced outside of the Rhône Valley. The 2020 vintage in Suvereto was marked by a warm, dry summer, which resulted in grapes with exceptional phenolic ripeness and an intense aromatic profile. Sourced from the estate's most prestigious, low-yielding plots, this wine was matured for approximately 18 months in 100% new French oak barriques to polish its monumental structure.
On the nose, it delivers an explosive and multi-layered bouquet of blackberry liqueur, black pepper, and scorched earth, accented by sophisticated notes of dark chocolate, smoked meat, and wild rosemary. The palate is full-bodied and profoundly concentrated, showcasing a dense, velvety core of black fruit and espresso underpinned by the signature ferrous minerality of the Maremma coast. The finish is remarkably long and resonant, featuring firm, fine-grained tannins and a persistent balsamic lift.

Seductive aromas of violets, blackberries, blueberries, flowers and sandalwood. Sophisticated. Full-bodied with super-fine tannins and good length. Classy and superb. Such balance. Hints of sweet tobacco and berries at the end. You can drink it now, but it will age for decades.
