About This Wine
In 1984, Rita and Virgilio purchased Tua Rita, intending to use the land and buildings as a peaceful haven to work on and enjoy together. However, their love for wine ultimately transformed everything. The wine itself, a pure Merlot, takes its name from a nearby stream. When Rita and Virgilio set aside two barrels in 1994 from the first production, they could never have predicted that it would become an internationally renowned wine. This exceptional wine was born from vines planted in 1988 on a gentle slope in the heart of the estate, benefiting from the perfect combination of location, soil, and microclimate.

"Wow. The aromas are really something else with red fruits, black olives, spices like cardamon and nutmeg, as well as hints of tar and meat. It’s full-bodied yet in check and focus with fine, fine tannins that roll over the palate and create beautiful motion. Chewy yet silky and endless. A great young merlot and one of the best for a number of years." --99 points, James Suckling
