Azienda Agricola Tua Rita was founded in 1984 by Rita Tua and her husband Virgilio Bisti, and is located just outside the small town Suvereto in the Tuscan province of Livorno. It all began with a two-hectare plot and has grown to cover 30 hectares of vineyards, which are farmed organically.
Tasting Note
Concentrated, dense, nearly opaque purple in colour, Perlato del Bosco delivers tantalizing aromas of blackberries, black cherries, currants, ripe plums, tea leaves, exotic spices, and leather. Rich and full-bodied on the palate, this wine’s enticing fruit flavors are accompanied by notes of anise, violets, and peppery spice, all of which are framed by fine-grained tannins.
Location of Vineyard
Tua Rita is located in Suvereto, a small medieval town in the Tuscan province of Livorno, on the coast south of Bolgheri. The winery lies at just 300 feet above sea level, on clay, silty soil.
Winemaking and Viticulture Philosophy
Luca D’Attoma, the estate’s winemaker, keeps yields to a minimum to ensure concentration of flavors. The estate’s total annual production is currently just 3400 cases.
