From the Suvereto region of Tuscany, Redigaffi Tua Rita 2004 is a pure expression of Merlot, demonstrating the varietal’s potential in a non-traditional Italian setting. The wine was crafted with grapes sourced from high-density vineyards, where clay-rich soils contribute to its structure. Harvested in a classic vintage that ensured optimal ripening, the 2004 release underwent fermentation and maturation in 100% new French oak barrels. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, the wine unveils layers of blackberries, espresso, and exotic spices. Its concentration is complemented by a lush mouthfeel and a vibrant acidity, marking a notable example of Italian winemaking under the Tua Rita label, renowned for its avant-garde approach and commitment to quality.

The inky-colored 2004 Redigaffi, 100% Merlot aged for 16 months in new oak, offers expressive, nuanced aromatics along with sensations of richly-textured blue and black jammy fruit, minerals, mint, chocolate, spices and sweet toasted oak on big, powerful frame with notable underlying structure and a warm, resonating finish. Although it has enough structure and acidity to drink well for another decade or so, I enjoy Redigaffi most in its youth. Antonio Galloni1st February 2007
