Intense aromas of raspberry sauce with vanilla cream. Full-bodied, soft and round, with lots of fruit and a caressing, seductive texture on the finish. Big and juicy. Blockbuster. Merlot. Best after 2007. 565 cases made. James Suckling, Winespectator.com

Tua Rita’s 2003 Redigaffi, 100% Merlot, opens with notes of over-ripeness on the nose. An initial suggestion of reduction blows of with air. It presents plenty of fruit, chocolate and toasted oak along with a richly concentrated, opulent personality, yet a note of gaminess and hard, unripe tannins ultimately convey the impression of a less polished version of this wine than is normally the case. My preference is to drink Redigaffi on the young side. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2013. Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate February 2007
