  James Suckling
  "This is a young wine with terrific depth and layers of fruit. It’s full-bodied with notes of eucalyptus, lavender and sage and hints of matchsticks and oranges. It’s linear and tight at the end, with an energetic finish. Very Saffredi in nature. Better than the 2021. 65% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot and 10% petite verdot."

  The Wine Advocate
  "This is one of only a handful of wines made on the Tuscan Coast that has managed to interpret the vintage in such an excellent manner. The Fattoria le Pupille 2022 Saffredi (a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot) deftly plays upon the elegance and fruity brightness of the growing season, while also harnessing its freshness and its slightly more streamlined appeal. The wine is nuanced and layered with fine details that recall wild berry, spice, blue flower and blood orange. To my mind, the 2022 stands apart from almost every other past vintage of Saffredi. This is a new direction for the wine that we can all happily embrace."

  "Der 2022er Saffredi ist ein noch viel zu junges Powerpaket mit feinkonturiertem Körper, ein Zehnkämpfer von der Statur her, der aber auch ein paar tänzerische Elemente hat. Dicht und wollüstig, mit der typischen mediterranen Fülle und Kräuterwürzigkeit, herrlich floral nach Veilchen und Lavendel, Edelschokolade, Leder und Lakritz. Bleibt im Verlauf trotz samtiger und schmelziger Fülle linear und diszipliniert, als würde man das Kraftpaket in ein enges Korsett führen, zupackende Frische im Finale. Mindestens 5 Jahre liegen lassen."

  "Menthol-infused dark berry aromas open the door to an intense and juicy mouthful of precisely wrought red and black berries and cherries. Wonderful lip-smacking sapidity and finely integrated tannins complete the package. The 2022 Saffredi is the result of the estate's hard work and it has paid dividends. Elisabetta Geppetti's son, Ettore – in just his third vintage overseeing the winemaking without the experienced hand of ex-consultant Luca d'Attoma – has beautifully interpreted the vintage. He tells me that, unusually, it took the team three harvests at different times to obtain the freshness evident in the wine. It's a stunner. Wow!"
