Description
Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana Rosso by Fattoria Le Pupille
Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana is the flagship wine of Fattoria Le Pupille, born from the idea of creating a great red in Maremma and today recognized as one of the most representative labels of the winery. A Bordeaux blend of great personality, built on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, which combines power, elegance, and aromatic depth in a sip designed for those seeking an important wine with a strong territorial identity.
Territory and wine style
The Maremma Toscana offers this wine an ideal context: vineyards located in Pereta, about 250 meters above sea level, with favorable exposures and predominantly sandy soils, low in organic matter and with little clay. These conditions help provide balance, definition, and concentration, fundamental elements in the style of Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana. The presence of international grape varieties, combined with the interpretation of the territory by Fattoria Le Pupille, gives rise to a modern red that is firmly linked to its origins. The maturation in new barriques for a good part of the blend contributes to an intense, rich, and refined profile, without losing coherence with the fruit.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a very deep and impenetrable ruby red color, an indicator of density and concentration. On the nose, ripe red fruits, currants, and blackberries emerge, followed by spicy notes of cloves and cinnamon, with hints of chocolate enriching the olfactory profile. On the palate, Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana is round, velvety, and enveloping, with a dense yet harmonious texture. The structure is significant, supported by a majestic balance and a very long persistence, where the spicy component remains the protagonist until the finish.
Recommended pairings
This red wine shines with structured and flavorful dishes, such as roasted red meats, braised dishes, game, and wild fowl. Its richness also makes it suitable for important preparations based on mushrooms, reduced sauces, and aged cheeses with a strong character. In pairing, Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana naturally accompanies more meditative moments and can be chosen with dark chocolate for an intense and satisfying finish.
Serving temperature
To express itself at its best, Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana should be served at a temperature between 18 and 20 °C. If the bottle is young, a brief aeration in a decanter can be useful to promote the opening of the bouquet and make the spicy and fruity nuances even more relaxed.
Why buy it
Choosing Saffredi IGT Maremma Toscana means bringing to the table an iconic wine, capable of combining the signature of Fattoria Le Pupille with an authoritative, elegant, and persistent style. It is a perfect bottle for an important dinner, for a high-level tasting, or for those who wish to purchase online a great Tuscan red with strong personality, structure, and the ability to evolve over time.
