Fattoria Le Pupille Poggio Valente Toscana Rosso 2020

Bright ruby red. The bouquet reveals notes of red roses, black cherry, blood orange and blackberry. Juniper berries, dried flowers, Tuscan cigars and undergrowth follow. Full-bodied and intense with silky and dense tannins. Persistent finish with hints of black currant.

Critical Acclaim

95 James Suckling

Lots of rose petals on the nose, together with orange peel and cherries. Medium-bodied with very long and bright fruit character. Goes on for minutes, with so much energy and brightness. Drink or hold.

94 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Following a challenging harvest for Sangiovese, the Fattoria le Pupille 2020 Poggio Valente generates aromas of wild cherry, pressed violet, balsam herb and grilled rosemary. There is a lot of good freshness (this was the difficulty of the vintage), and the wine has good tannic support for a rich core of fruit. Poggio Valente is not dominated by oak, and that is also what sets it apart.

94 Vinous

The 2020 Poggio Valente’s, a varietal of Sangiovese, notes are amplified in a heady, effortless Tuscan red that hits all the right notes. Dark red/purplish fruit, rose petals, licorice, cedar and tobacco fill out the layers. The 2020 impresses with its superb balance and class.
