Tua Rita Keir Rosso Toscana 2021

The Tua Rita 2021 Keir Rosso is Syrah fermented on the skins in Tuscan clay jars. This wine always reveals a pleasingly elegant character, with much of its aromatic power coming directly from the skins, with dried cherry and redcurrant. With time, you get menthol notes, cola and subtle spice. That bright spot of freshness is easy to identify in this vintage. With time, the wine turns to crushed rose and lilac. Fruit for this wine is picked from a parcel planted in 2004 very close to the Syrah that gives birth to Per Sempre.

Love the nose with the dried flowers, red beans and red fruits that follow through to a medium body with firm tannins and a crunchy and delicious finish. Just a hint of cappuccino. Made in amphora with whole clusters of grapes and a tiny bit of wood aging for four months. Pure syrah. Drink now or hold.

Keir is an amphora-vinified and oak-aged Syrah which is all about elegance and perfume, with a good proportion of whole-cluster fruit and six months of skin contact. Floral notes of Parma violets and lavender mingle with blackberry and breezy wild herbs. The palate has a delicious and omnipresent line of cocoa, with fine, powdery tannins and poised, succulent dark fruits lifted by those floral elements. The finish is long, fresh, fragrant and balsamic, with velvety texture and chocolatey richness. The fruit seems a bit shy at the moment, but hopefully it will emerge with some more time in bottle.
