| Gary Hewitt "Superb 'Super Tuscan' from the coastal region of Suvereto. 80% Cab Sauv, and 10% each of Cab Franc and Merlot aged 18 months in new and once-used French oak. Elegant and intense with deep black fruit flavours, integrated oak spice, and strong ripe tannins, this wine is beautifully poised for long-term aging--it still has youthful character at 7 years old! Tua Rita plays in the big leagues, and this wine proves they belong. (2011 tasted 13 Sept 2018)" |
