Drink now or cellar for up to 19 years. No need to decant before serving.

Tua Rita is known for its sublime Super Tuscans which consistently draw top scores from international wine critics, but the Keir marks a bold new direction for the estate. This limited edition release is crafted from 100% Syrah and vinified on the skins in amphorae for three months. The new wine is then transferred to used oak barrels where it spends a further five months before bottling.

This innovative use of clay vessels for fermentation followed by maturation in used oak barrels showcases and emphasises the quality of the grapes. The nose opens with ripe plums, cherries, and crushed dark berres, while the first sip reveals a vivacious freshness, gentle tannins, and a firm structure. Hints of bacon and tobacco smoke along with blackberry and blackcurrant flavours linger long on the palate, inviting sip after sip.

The unique Keir is a testament to the vision of Rita Tua and Virgilio Bisti who established Tua Rita in 1984 after purchasing 1 hectare of vines in the Notri sub-zone of Suvereto in southern Tuscany. Before long the estate was selling grapes to Sassicaia before deciding to bottle their own wines and expand the property to the 30 hectares it covers today.
