Fattoria Le Pupille Elisabetta Geppeti Poggio Valente 2020

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. Drink date: 2023-2035. Score – 94+. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, May 31, 2023)
