A fantastic value Tuscan red

About 15 years ago a good friend of mine who is one of the most well-known wine enthusiasts in the US came home from a trip to Italy and told me that he had discovered the best wine in the world that no one had ever heard of. He was referring to Fattoria le Pupille Saffredi. When I tasted multiple vintages of it at a dinner at his home with the proprietor, Elisabetta Geppetti, I had to agree with him that it was a truly profound wine.

Elisabetta's 2020 Morellino di Scansano shows her dedication to making great wine. It is textbook Tuscan Sangiovese - medium-bodied with bright red cherry fruit, caressing tannins and perfectly balanced acidity. Beautiful now and for the next four to five years. James Suckling agrees with me, rating it 92 points! And our price is only $17.99!
