Tua Rita Redigaffi 2017

This has gorgeous aromas of walnuts, chocolate, spiced plums, licorice and grilled herbs. Rich and chewy with a full body and firm, broad tannins. Opulent, yet held in check. Salty undertones to the ripe fruit and spice. Concentrated from start to finish. 100% merlot. Drink or hold [into mid-2030s+]. Score – 97. (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 26, 2022)
