98 points James Suckling: "I love the dried flowers and smoked meats with hints of plums and berries. Full body, layered and refined with an extremely pretty and textured palate. Tea and dark fruits. Deep and fantastic. Savory. 20% whole berry. Best ever? Made from organic grapes. (8/28/17)"
96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "Tua Rita's 2015 Syrah Per Sempre offers notable textural richness and depth, with a thread of whole cluster aromatic nuance that is woven throughout a core of intense dark fruit. Savory and floral notes continue to emerge with time in the glass. Creamy, silky tannins add to the wine's considerable appeal. Drink: 2020-2028. (Apr 2018)"
95 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "Tua Rita's Syrah is quickly reaching quality levels that could put it ahead of the estate's celebrated Merlot Redigaffi. In fact, I approached this tasting of warm-vintage releases with special curiosity and anticipation for this particular wine over the others (based on how well Syrah does in hot vintages). Ultimately, the 2015 Syrah Per Sempre took a little extra time to open, and the bouquet was initially shy and reticent. Slowly and surely, it started to deliver dark fruit intensity with smoke, cured meat and spicy tobacco. The wine performs beautifully in the palate, however, and a big part of my score was inspired by the excellence of the mouthfeel. It is nuanced, rich and velvety. Drink 2018-2035. (Nov 2017)"
95 points Decanter: "The first vintage of this 100% Syrah was in 2001. Stefano Frascolla tells the touching story of how, whenever his father-in-law was asked which was his favourite wine, he would say 'Syrah per sempre' - literally 'Syrah forever', but colloquially 'Syrah of course'. This is sweetly perfumed with juicy, vibrant acidity, lots of ripe, dark fruit, rich oak and concentrated liquorice flavours. A well rounded wine with a strong personality. Drinking Window: 2018-2028. (Feb 2018)"
