Description

// 100% Merlot

"Deep, intense purple in color, with tremendous extraction, Redigaffi is a monumental and beautifully structured wine that shows how well the non-native Merlot has adapted to the area around Suvereto on the Tuscan coast. It offers luscious layers of raspberry. This wine pairs beautifully with dark-fruit chutney sauces, kalamata olive tapenade, Châteaubriand, and grilled pepper-crusted sirloins." - Winemaker Notes

"This has aromas of cigar box, black plums, cherries, mocha and toasted walnuts. Full-bodied with firm, tight and chewy tannins. Structured and deep with polished oak-spice character. Tight for now. Yet very fine and elegant. Finesse for Redigaffi. Give it a few years to show you even more." - 96 Points, James Suckling

"The Redigaffi from Tua Rita is one of the most consistently decorated Merlots in the wine world. The 2020 vintage produced lower yields in Tuscany but wines of a very high quality. This pedigreed Merlot from Tua Rita offers abundant aromas of white pepper, barrel spice, vanilla and dusty black fruit. The palate is fruit-forward with late-season blackberry, black cherry and chocolate. The wine pulls of the higher alcohol without a hint of notice." - 95 Points, Clive Pursehouse, Decanter
