Elisabetta Geppetti makes some of the most delicious wines in the Tuscan Maremma. It is best known for Saffredi, which has been described as the Lafite of Tuscany.
The single-vineyard wine spends 18 months in a barrel and is bottled without fining or filtration. This offering could be called a Tuscan Pomerol. 100% Sangiovese is medium to full-bodied with no hard edges. Succulent and velvety-textured, with copious amounts of fruit (black cherries, plums, and cassis), this gorgeously-styled, hedonistic wine will provide thrilling drinking.
