How does this wine taste?
How full and heavy the wine feels in your mouth, like the difference between skimmed milk and cream. More alcohol, sugar and oak ageing make a wine fuller.
The drying, grippy feel on your gums and tongue, as with strong tea. It comes from the skins and seeds of black grapes and from oak, and softens with age.
How much sugar you taste, from dry to sweet. Fruity is not the same as sweet: a dry wine can taste of ripe fruit.
How fresh and juicy the wine is: acidity makes your mouth water. High acidity tastes lively and refreshing, low acidity soft and round.

Log inIn 1984, Rita Tua and her husband Virgilio bought an estate in Suvereto that included two hectares of vineyard. Initially, they did not have the idea of creating a top estate, but their meticulous care for this small vineyard quickly led to a cult status within Tuscany. Because their work proved so successful, they continuously purchased additional vineyards and in 2014 the domain was expanded to 30 hectares. When Vergilio passed away in 2010, daughter Simena and her husband Stefano Frascolla took over the day-to-day management of the domain. In the meantime, the domain's reputation had been made worldwide.
The Tua Rita Per Semper Syrah has an inky black color and intense aromas of black pepper, blackcurrants and tar. Mouth-filling wine with good tannins and a firm structure. Powerful and spicy aftertaste. Parker describes it very aptly, calling this his "Happy Wine": You take three things – Syrah, sunshine and Tuscany – and magically fit them together to create the 2017 Syrah Per Semper . The Per Semper is dark, exuberant, rich black fruit followed by carefully measured concentration and velvety richness. The Per Semper is also one of the highest scores that the Wine Advocate has awarded to an Italian wine from the 2018 vintage.

The Tua Rita 2018 Syrah Per Sempre is another monumental achievement from this iconic Tuscan estate. Stefano Frascolla and his team have slouched into a very cozy and comfortable relationship with the Syrah grape, and this wine registers marked exuberance, generosity and quality with each vintage that I taste. I had previewed a sample of this 3,500-bottle release earlier in the year but did not give the wine a definitive score. Now on the market, Per Sempre boasts solid footing, rich density, ample fruitiness and pretty notes of spice and charred meat, thanks to 17 months in new French oak. The tannins are especially well managed, soft and integrated.

In 1984, Rita and Virgilio realized their lifelong dream by purchasing the property that became Tua Rita. The landscape and buildings on this property were just a setting to live in contact with nature while cultivating their beloved land. Their overwhelming passion for wine actually changed their plans. The original two hectares of vineyards have been carefully cultivated since the beginning, this rigorous and passionate care has brought Tua Rita together among the most successful producers. In less than ten years they had expanded the estate to nine acres, then twenty; Today, the totality of planted vines covers thirty hectares. Its growth has been driven by the enduring enthusiasm of Rita and Virgilio and an ever-deepening awareness of the potential of this estate in the area between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Colline Metallifere, known as Val di Cornia.
On the one hand, the estate and cellar grew steadily, driven by the extreme dedication of Rita and Virgilio. On the other hand, thanks to Stefano Frascolla, married to the owner's daughter Simena, the winery's reputation expanded rapidly. Simena also became involved in the family business after Virgilio's death in 2010. The name of the estate is derived from the reversal of Rita Tua's first and last name.
The domain's entry-level wine is 'Rosso dei Notri', a particularly tasty IGP based on sangiovese, cabernet sauvigon, merlot and syrah. 'Perlato del Bosco', on the other hand, is a pure sangiovese under the IGP flag. The domain's signature wine is 'Giusto di Notri', simply a stunning Bordeaux blend of cabernet sauvagon, merlot and cabernet franc. Finally, a pure syrah and merlot (‘Redigaffi’) follow to complete the list. These last two wines are among the very best wines in all of Italy, even the whole world. Unfortunately not cheap, but of an unprecedented complexity, intensity and above all an excellent balanced structure with endless aftertaste
De 2018 Tua Rita Per Sempre Syrah biedt een inktzwarte concentratie met rijp zwart fruit, zwarte peper, teerachtige aroma’s en een subtiele vanille- en toasttoon van 17 maanden nieuw Frans eiken, ondersteund door zachte, goed geïntegreerde tannines. Dankzij die krachtige fruitconcentratie, kruidigheid en stevige structuur combineert hij uitstekend met rijk rundvlees, lamsgerechten, wild, robuuste charcuterie en gegrild vlees van de barbecue, omdat de wijn de vetten en umami van deze gerechten ophoogt zonder te overheersen. Kies voor langzaam gegaard vlees zoals cote de boeuf of lamsbout, gegrild met rozemarijn en zwarte peper of langzaam gerookt wild, want de geroosterde en kruidige bereidingswijzen accentueren de rokerige en peperige tonen van de wijn het best.
