WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Tua Rita Giusto di Notri 2022 is produced from grapes grown in Suvereto, Tuscany, on clayey soils with a pebble fraction. The vines are trained using the spurred cordon system. Harvest is conducted by hand into 15 kg crates. Vinification includes maceration of grape skins and juice for up to 30 days to enhance intensity. The wine is aged for approximately 18 to 20 months in French oak barrels, with some usage of first and second passage barrels. Following barrel aging, it rests in the bottle for a few months before release.
