“BEST CLASSIC PUPILLE IN YEARS” – JAMES SUCKLING “Every up and coming wine region always has one winery to thank for the region’s rise to greatness and in the case of Morellino di Scansano, located on the Tuscan coast, we can thank Elisabetta Geppetti proprietor of Fattoria Le Pupille. She had a vision thirty plus years ago and today she not only produces some of the finest wines in Scansano but some of the most sought-after wines in Tuscany. Elisabetta along with her winemaker, Luca D’Attoma, have raised the bar again in 2013 and brought in casks and barrels with wider staves, allowing the wines to mature slower and give a greater respect to varietal correctness. If the name Luca D’Atoma sounds familiar, he is currently or has been the winemaker for such legendary wineries such as Tua Rita, Le Macchiole, DueMani and countless others.
I tasted the wines this past April and was
blown away – I am thrilled that they have now arrived in store! In addition to having the best prices in the country, The Wine House is also exclusive in California on the 2015 Morellino di Scansano which is under $12 if you buy 6 or more! If you love elegant expressions of Sangiovese and one of Italy's great Super Tuscan wines, these Morellino di Scansano wines are not to be missed. We also have a limited supply of the iconic 96-point Cabernet-based Saffredi.” – Lance Montalto, The Wine House
