Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2007

Although the 2003 Giusto di Notri, a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, may not quite reach the level of the 2004 it too is outstanding. Boasting an attractive set of super-ripe fruit, earth, herb and well-integrated oak sensations, it is a plump, juicy Giusto di Notri that should provide its best drinking within the next few years. Like so many 2003s it suffers from slightly hard, drying tannins but there is enough fruit to provide balance and the tannins have become better integrated since I last tasted this wine a few months ago. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2013.

Wine Spectator, October 2005

This is very jammy on the nose, but impressive with lots of raspberry and blackberry aromas. Full-bodied, soft and round, with loads of opulent fruit. Lots of vanilla on the finish. Thick and caressing. Flamboyant red here. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best after 2006. 1,915 cases made. -JS

About Winery

Rita Tua and Virgilio Bisti bought this land in Suvereto in 1984 and planted new species of grapes (cabernet sauvignon and merlot). Later they planted another 7 hectares.
1985 was the first year of wine-making but it was possible to bottle and sell wine only in 1992.
The annual production is currently of about 40.000 bottles.
The farm is 22 hectare wide, 18 hectares are planted with winery (12 of them are in production).
The wineries lie at 100 metres above sea level, on a clayey, silty soil.
The biggest news at Tua Rita is the return of original consulting oenologist Luca D'Attoma, who oversaw much of the planting and made the first vintages.
