Tua Rita Syrah Per Sempre 2020.
To those who asked Virgil, the founder of the company together with his wife Rita, which of the wines of the production he preferred, he answered without hesitation: "The Syrah, forever."
One of Tua Rita's most limited edition flagship wines exists only because of Virgil's stubbornness and his desire to experiment.
Alongside the traditional vineyards he wanted Syrah: he personally took care of the vineyard, observed it, tried to understand its ability to integrate with the territory and waited until he decided that the fruits were ready for an autonomous vinification.
After 18 months of barriques the organoleptic evolution was wonderful and the certainties of Virgil were immediately confirmed by press and market.
The label is dedicated to the one who founded the company and who has transmitted to all those who work there love and respect for the territory, combined with the continuous and meticulous search for quality... FOREVER!
VARIETIES: 100% Syrah.
FIRST VINTAGE: 2001
MATURATION: For 15-17 months in new French oak barriques; after going into bottle in the summer, the wine is left to age for several months before release to market.
DESIGNATION: I.G.T. Toscana Syrah.
SOIL: Markedly clayey with a fairly significant pebble fraction. The higher plots are more pebbly, those lower down have more silt.
