Advice to enjoy this wine at its best.

Let’s talk about Rosso Toscana IGT - Redigaffi - Tua Rita

More questions

Redigaffi is Tua Rita’s prestigious Toscana IGT, produced in Alta Maremma in the Colline Metallifere area. First made in 1994, it is crafted exclusively from Merlot grapes grown on distinctly clay-rich soils with a medium to high presence of stones. The grapes are harvested by hand and placed in 15 kg crates to preserve their quality and allow careful selection of the finest bunches.

After vinification, the wine matures for 18 to 20 months in first-use French oak barriques, followed by several months of bottle ageing before release. On the palate, it shows structure, concentration and depth, with a rich, enveloping profile of ripe dark fruit, spices, balsamic nuances and tobacco notes. Serve at 15-18 °C. Redigaffi is an excellent match for game, roasted red meats, braised dishes and mature cheeses.

The story
The estate was established when Rita Tua and Virgilio Bisti purchased the property in Notri. Originally a family farming project, the estate gradually developed—planting international varieties and beginning to bottle in the early 1990s—and earned international recognition that prompted the winery to expand both its vineyards and its range of labels.
Production philosophy
Artisanal vineyard care and an uncompromising pursuit of quality: attention is focused on the precise management of the crus, grape selection and winemaking techniques aimed at expressing the terroir of the metalliferous hills of Alta Maremma.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located in Suvereto, in the Alta Maremma/Val di Cornia area, on soils with a clay component and rocky content that contribute mineral notes and salinity to the wines.
