Robert Parker (97)

This blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot is one of the three benchmarks from Tua Rita. This gorgeous 2018 Giusto di Notri (tasted in a preview capacity before its October 2020 release date) was born beautiful, or so I am told. The wine saw little racking and a hands-off approach, because it came seamlessly together on its own in the winery. Merlot was harvested first in mid-September, and the Cabernets came off the vines in October, without a cloud in the sky. The wine shows the heft and determination you should expect, although this vintage reveals a magically delicate and elegant side with aromas of blue flowers, spice and wild plums. Again, I am reminded of purely Tuscan aromas with wild sage, grilled rosemary and macchia mediterranea shrubs that grow wild in these parts. The wine is also light and fresh on the palate with a surprising degree of weightlessness, yet the persistence is long and polished. I tasted this wine several times over the course of 48 hours, and it never fell apart (despite my unfinished sample). Some 33,000 bottles will be filled.
