Description

This release is absolutely knockout. There is so much intensity, and each element of the bouquet blooms and delights with pin point accuracy. A big wine, that still remains balanced, I am very impressed with the sophistication that this wine has. Black forest fruits and a touch of rosemary and bay, stand up to the big, but wonderfully ripe tannins. There is a little spice on the finish and it would be easy to pair this wine for future dinner parties.

Saffredi di Maremma Pupille

Fattoria Le Pupille is a Morellino di Scansano estate, run by the charismatic Elisabetta Geppetti who abandoned the university halls for the vineyards and the winery in the 1980s. Along with Antinori’s legendary winemaker, the late Giacomo Tachis (creator of Sassicaia, Tignanello and Solaia, to name just three) and Elisabetta’s mentor, Fredi, Elisabetta embarked on a process of renewal and innovation at Le Pupille which led to the creation of Saffredi, to stand alongside their Morellino di Scansano and Morellino di Scansano Riserva. First created in 1987, the blend has varied over the years, but a perfect balance of the classic Bordeaux grape varieties has now been set and the wine is made from 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, aged for 18 months in French oak barriques, 75% of which are new. Fattoria Le Pupille has been boosted by the appointment of Luca D'Attoma as consultant in recent years.
