Meningen over 2020 Syrah Per Sempre (1,5L)
Antonio Galloni, Vinous: 96
"The 2020 Syrah Per Sempre is a sensual, beguiling beauty. Silky tannins and lifted aromatics lend tons of charm and immediacy. All the elements are impeccably balanced here. The 2020 is not a huge expression of the variety, but in exchange, it drinks very well today. Readers will find a Syrah built on finesse. Blue-toned fruit, graphite, leather, lavender and spice linger on the brilliant finish."
Falstaff: 96
"Clear, compact ruby. Opens with intense notes of black pepper and galangal, then plum and blueberry. Full-bodied and dense on the palate, showing lots of vivid dark fruit, grippy tannins that are still a bit rough, savoury and wild."

"Seductive aromas of violets, blackberries, blueberries, flowers and sandalwood. Sophisticated. Full-bodied with super-fine tannins and good length. Classy and superb. Such balance. Hints of sweet tobacco and berries at the end. You can drink it now, but it will age for decades."

"This new vintage is just terrific because it marries a sunny growing season with a grape like Syrah, which thrives in these conditions. The Tua Rita 2020 Syrah Per Sempre embraces juicy, full-bodied fruit with lots of blackberry, plum, sweet spice and campfire ash. Stefano Frascolla deliberately seeks to avoid any eucalyptus or camphor-like overtones. He looks for bold primary fruit instead. This is achieved through fruit ripeness, vineyard care and oak management. Syrah has a short harvest window, so timing is important. The vineyards are planted in marl soils with schistic material that is typical of the mineral-rich hills surrounding Suvereto. The wine goes from barrique to botte grande for an additional two or three months to stretch its legs. The 2019 vintage is gorgeous, but this expression from 2020 has more power and heft"
