WINE MAKING PROCESS
Per Sempre Tua Rita is produced from 100% Syrah grapes grown in Tuscany. The winemaking process involves manual pressing, often in open vats or barriques, with the potential use of stems during fermentation depending on weather conditions. The wine is aged for 15-17 months in first-passage French oak barriques. After bottling, it undergoes several months of bottle aging before its release. The producer, Tua Rita, emphasizes natural farming methods to ensure vineyard health and environmental well-being, reflecting a philosophy of quality without compromise and a spirit of innovation.
