Tua Rita Redigaffi 2022

Aromas of crushed fruit and white pepper with dried lavender and hints of violets and sage flowers. Stony undertones, too. Medium- to full-bodied, tight and focused, with reserve and beauty. And then it grows on the palate with polished and focused tannins that take it to another level. Exudes freshness and length, despite the hot growing season. A sophisticated red and with a long future ahead. Try after three to four years. [This has the potential to evolve into mid-2040s.] (jamessuckling.com,Aug. 28, 2024)
