Bid on this bottle of 2000 Fattoria Le Pupille "Saffredi" Maremma Toscana (94RP, 94ST). Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2000 is another wow wine. Sensual and elegant through and through, the 2000 emerges from the glass with tons of ripe dark fruit, crushed flowers, raspberries, earthiness, worn-in leather and licorice. It possesses marvelous depth and intensity in its fruit, but with a level of complexity and nuance in the bouquet that completes the wine in magnificent style. The round, enveloping finish makes it impossible to resist a second taste. (AG)" (05/2011)

(a blend of 50% cabernet sauvignon, 35% merlot and 15% grenache) Very dark ruby, almost black. Utterly seductive aromas of blackberry, mint, eucalyptus and incense. Offers a wonderful creamy richness of cassis-like flavor on the palate, with layers of dark berry fruit expressed with clarity and verve. Silky tannins frame the sweet, lingering finish. This property continues to be a pacesetter in the Scansano area for its elegantly fashioned wines.
