📅 Friday, October 2nd
🕓 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM
📍 1257 Second Avenue (Corner of 66th Street)
Host by : Giovanni Frascolla, Third generation and owner of Tua Rita
From the vibrant, everyday elegance of coastal Tuscan blends to the concentrated power of Passito, this curated tasting showcases one visionary estate's mastery of Maremma's exceptional terroir, meticulous winemaking, and commitment to expressing the full potential of Tuscany's coastal wine region.
Tua Rita's 30-hectare estate is ideally situated in the coastal town of Val di Cornia, in the Maremma (Upper Maremma) region of Tuscany, between the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian Seas. All Tua Rita wines—especially the exceptional Redigaffi—offer a distinctive style and unique expressions of the Ore Mountains' terroirs: the high mineral content in the soil adds remarkable flavors and a delectable salty sensation to the wines.

- Tua Rita: Toscana Rosso Dei Notri 2024
- Tua Rita: Toscana Perlato Del Bosco 2023
- Tua Rita: Toscana Giusto Di Notri 2023
- Tua Rita : Redigaffi 2023

A perfect opportunity to discover the distinctive character of coastal Tuscany, explore how mineral-driven terroir shapes both red and white wines, and experience why Tua Rita remains one of the most celebrated names in modern Italian winemaking, delivering exceptional quality and unmistakable maritime elegance in every glass.
