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.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Antonio Galloni\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJames Suckling Review: 97 Points\u003cbr\u003e\"A fantastic nose to this with currant, sage, rosemary and rose-petal character. Sweet tobacco and spicy chocolate, too. Very complex. The palate shows lovely depth of fruit with blackberries, blackcurrants and fine tannins. It’s racy and refined with a direct, focused palate. Just a baby. A blend of cabernet sauvignon 60%, merlot 32% and petite verdot 8%. This needs at least two or three years to soften. Try in 2023.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine Advocate Review: 96 Points\u003cbr\u003e\"The Fattoria le Pupille 2018 Saffredi borrows quite a bit from all of the grapes that make up the blend (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot). These balanced results open to a round bouquet of dark fruit, black cherry and plum. As the wine warms in the glass, it shows spice, cured tobacco and campfire embers. This is a full-bodied expression, but not excessively so. It puts forth immediate elegance with carefully measured tannins and a fitting postscript of fresh acidity. This newest vintage of Saffredi should be hitting the market now, but if you buy it, you should plan on cellaring it.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Monica Larner\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2021-07-14T09:56:49-05:00","created_at":"2021-07-14T09:56:49-05:00","vendor":"Sunfish Cellars Wine \u0026 Spirits","type":"Wine","tags":["90pt","Country_Italy","Producer_Fattoria le Pupille","Region_Tuscany","Size_750ml","Varietal_Red Blend","Vintage_2018","Wine"],"price":10999,"price_min":10999,"price_max":10999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":11999,"compare_at_price_min":11999,"compare_at_price_max":11999,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":39408790274091,"title":"Tuscany \/ Red Blend \/ 2018","option1":"Tuscany","option2":"Red Blend","option3":"2018","sku":"8030967018512","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Fattoria Le Pupille 'Saffredi' Maremma Toscana 2018 - Tuscany \/ Red Blend \/ 2018","public_title":"Tuscany \/ Red Blend \/ 2018","options":["Tuscany","Red Blend","2018"],"price":10999,"weight":1361,"compare_at_price":11999,"inventory_quantity":14,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"8030967018512","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/sunfishcellars.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/fattoria-saffredi-maremma-18-resize.jpg?v=1626706076"],"featured_image":"\/\/sunfishcellars.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/fattoria-saffredi-maremma-18-resize.jpg?v=1626706076","options":["Region","Varietal","Vintage"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":20551020314667,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.952,"height":1134,"width":1080,"src":"\/\/sunfishcellars.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/fattoria-saffredi-maremma-18-resize.jpg?v=1626706076"},"aspect_ratio":0.952,"height":1134,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/sunfishcellars.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/fattoria-saffredi-maremma-18-resize.jpg?v=1626706076","width":1080}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eName:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eFattoria Le Pupille 'Saffredi' Maremma Toscana\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCountry: \u003c\/b\u003eItaly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRegion: \u003c\/b\u003eTuscany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer: \u003c\/b\u003eFattoria le Pupille\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e750ml\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage: \u003c\/b\u003e2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVarietal: \u003c\/b\u003eRed Blend\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinous Review: 96+ Points\u003cbr\u003e\"The 2018 Saffredi is a regal, elegant, supremely polished wine.
