First produced in 1987, Saffredi is Fattoria Le Pupille’s flagship wine, a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. Deep ruby in colour, with purple reflections, the wine displays pronounced aromas of black fruits such as blackcurrants and black cherries, along with hints of cloves, cinnamon and liquorice. The palate offers a generous, velvety texture with round tannins and a return of the fruit for a lingering finish.

- The 2018 Saffredi is a regal, elegant, supremely polished wine. It may very well be the most refined Saffredi I have ever tasted. Silky in its first impression, with striking aromatic presence and exceptional balance, the 2018 is a total knock-out. Sweet red cherry, plum, mocha, licorice and cinnamon accents develop over time, but it is the wine’s overall balance and poise that are so impressive today. The 2018 is an absolutely gorgeous Saffredi. It spent 20 months in French oak barrels, about 65% new. Don’t miss it.
