Falstaff 100

"The Red Wine Saffredi Toscana Rosso IGT, vintage 2021 from the winery Fattoria Le Pupille has been rated in 2024 by Othmar Kiem, Simon Staffler with 100 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot from the region Toscana in Italy...Dark ruby-red core with purple nuances. Blackcurrant and mulberry on the nose, with damp earth, dark chocolate and alabaster. Dense on the palate, with tightly woven tannins and precise fruit. Many-layered, powerful, but with great finesse and incredibly long.."

Mesmerizing aromas of sandalwood, lavender, sage and currants. Mint and spearmint. Lead pencil shavings. Light coffee bean too. Medium to full body with ultra-fine tannins. It goes on for minutes. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, and 10% petit verdot. So approachable already, but this will age beautifully. Best after 2026 and beyond.

The Fattoria le Pupille 2021 Saffredi is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot that offers seamless integration of dark fruit flavors that bleed directly into spice, Tuscan cigar and earthy iris root. This vintage is compact and firm, especially in terms of mouthfeel, and there are graceful floral tones to close. The winery team has been tweaking the oak regime, landing on 60% to 65% new oak complemented by once-used barrels. They've been working in this manner since 2019 to establish sweet and integrated tannins.. - Monica Larner
