This blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot is exuberant and explosive. The 2020 Saffredi reveals a very ripe and rich interpretation of this iconic wine made by Elisabetta Geppetti and her family. The blend of fruit is the same, but 2020 actually sees less oak intervention to allow that dark fruit to shine through. There is blackberry, perfumed rose, dried apricot, spice and sweet cinnamon. In all, the wine offers immediate fruit and a vertical delivery of flavors. Finding that combination of wine versus oak is not easy, Elisabetta tells me.
Fattoria le Pupille’s Elisabetta Geppetti has recently made changes to her winemaking team. Consulting enologist Luca D’Attoma has left, and today winemaking is headed by her talented son Ettore Rizzi. Daughter Clara Gentili helps to manage the property. I have a full vertical of two Fattoria le Pupille wines to be published shortly. I tasted all vintages of Saffredi back to 1990 and Poggio Valente starting with the 1997 vintage - Monica Larner.
