Tua Rita Giusto Di Notri


Amathus
Founded in 1984, Tua Rita was instrumental in establishing the cult status of the earliest Super Tuscans. Nestled in the metalliferous hills of the Maremma in the coastal region of Tuscany, the original plot of 2 hectares has now grown to 30 and Tua Rita have carved out a reputation for being some of the best producers of Cabernet and Merlot in Tuscany. Today, second generation winemaker Stefano Frascolla continues to push the boundaries of Italian wine, experimenting with new varieties and techniques, and recent releases of these wines are the best they have ever been. The Giusto Di Notri is typically around 80 % Cabernet Sauvignon blended with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, aged for 18 months in a combination of old and new French oak barriques. It remains one of the best value supertuscans around. This 2018 Giusto dei Notri seems delightfully Cabernet Franc-like, although that variety is usually the minor player in the blend. Intense cassis and leafy notes intertwine, while on the palate more concentrated blackcurrant, green herb, elegant cedar and sweet spice flavours mingle with iron and mineral notes. I love the slightly sappy Bordeaux-like notes here and there. A beautifully elegant and persistent wine. 95/100 Decanter
