Le Pupille Saffredi 1997 is a notable blend that reflects the evolution of Fattoria Le Pupille, an estate founded in the undulating hills of Tuscany. The wine features a composition of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot, aged for 18 months in predominantly new French oak barriques. This vintage offers pronounced notes of blackcurrant, plum and herbal undertones, underpinned by subtle oak influence. The estate`s founder, Elisabetta Geppetti, initiated significant changes in the 1980s, collaborating with esteemed winemaker Giacomo Tachis to craft wines of this calibre.

The 1997 Saffredi is another wine that doesn`t develop a ton in the glass. The ripe, opulent personality of the vintage is in evidence, but the wine is rather one-dimensional. Grilled herbs, worn-in leather and spices add a touch of nuance on the finish. Ultimately the 1997 is a pretty boring Saffredi, particularly when tasted within the context of more recent vintages. - Antonio Galloni - The 1997 Saffredi is another wine that doesn't develop a ton in the glass.
