The Tua Rita 2012s were fabulous when I tasted them from barrel. They are every bit as compelling from bottle. The growing season brought with it warm August scirocco winds and an early harvest. Winemaker Luca D'Attoma has returned to Tua Rita with a different approach that, among other things, favors gentler extraction and less new oak influence. The result is wines that boast extraordinary purity of fruit to match the trademark opulence that is such a signature of Suvereto. Readers who haven't tasted Tua Rita in a few years owe it to themselves to do so. These are some of the best wines I have ever tasted from Tua Rita, one of Tuscany's small, family-owned reference-points.
