Tasting notes
Tua Rita's 'Rosso dei Notri 2003' is something you should definitely try. It's a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet, and Merlot from the sunny hills of Tuscany, known for its robust flavor profile. This bottle is part of their approachable lineup, perfect for a casual evening.
In Volume 6 of 'The Drops of God', it's the wine that Honma picks when he's feeling down about Catherine's marriage. Imagine a scene where a girl picks flowers under a bright summer sky, with a nostalgic straw hat shading her. This wine feels just like that comforting scene.
Pour it into your glass, and you'll see a deep ruby red that grabs your attention. The aroma is open and inviting with ripe blackberry and spicy notes wafting up. Take a sip, and you'll feel the rich fruit flavors spreading across your palate, supported by structured tannins. The acidity is refreshing, bringing everything together nicely.
The finish is long, with a pleasant lingering astringency that keeps you coming back for more. Serve this wine around 16-18°C to fully appreciate its charms.
