Cellar
The Tua Rita wine cellar is a true excellence in the Tuscan region. Rita Tua and her husband Virgilio began their journey into the wine world with 2 hectares of vineyards in 1984. From the original 2 hectares of vineyard, cultivated with the utmost rigour right from the start and which placed Tua Rita among the first happy Italian experiences built on the 'vin de garage' model, in the space of about ten years they grew to 9, then to 20, at the beginning of the new millennium, to arrive at the current 30 hectares of vineyards. Enlarged and completely overhauled between 2000 and 2002 to support a high-profile production, which now stands at 220,000 bottles, Tua Rita's wine cellar obeys operational requirements first and foremost, in the great Italian tradition of the artisanal winery. Few and unobtrusive, moreover, are the oenological interventions. Annual production oscillates around 250-280 thousand bottles. The company produces both red and white wines, all with an extremely elegant and personalised style.
Description
Tua Rita's multi-award-winning 'Rosso dei Notri' wine is a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet, Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, obtained from the winery's youngest vineyards. The grapes were all harvested by hand, without the aid of machines. Rosso dei Notri is a warm and pleasant wine, with good freshness and easy drinking.
