Rich ruby-purple colour. Rich and appealing nose, full of plums. Has a lot of fine spice on the palate, of dried herbs, sage and curry herb, full-bodied on the palate, already amazingly polished tannins, again lots of plums on the finish.

Fattoria Le Pupille:

The founder of Le Pupille, Elisabetta Gepetti, is not only the visionary of viticulture in Maremma, the southern part of Tuscany, but also a passionate ambassador for the region. The energetic winemaker was instrumental in founding the Morellino di Scansano Consortium in 1992 and subsequently became the first woman ever to be president of an Italian wine consortium.

Of the 420 hectares of the Le Pupille estate, 75 hectares are dedicated to vineyards. On the rest, the original landscape of olive trees, wheat fields and forests is maintained. Le Pupille bottles around half a million bottles. You can be sure of the exceptional quality across all price categories.
