‘THIS IS SPECTACULAR’: TASTING FATTORIA LE PUPILLE SAFFREDI 2019
Show Notes

James sits down with mother-daughter team of Elisabetta Geppetti and Clara Gentili of Tuscan winery Fattoria Le Pupille to taste the Fattorria Le Pupille Saffredi 2019, which James calls "spectacular," and they compare previous vintages of the wine. "The only thing I'm a little bit annoyed about is it's really a wine that needs about five or six years," James says about it. James suggests a tasting of the 2019, 2016 and 2015 vintages to fully lock in the differences. James compares the 2019 to the '16, although Elisabetta says, "For me, it's more elegant than the '16, even if '16 was so very nice."
