Wine Spectator
Reviewed October 2007Shows a very ripe nose, with rose, berry and hints of meat. Full-bodied and powerful, with chewy tannins and a long, long finish. Massive yet balanced. What a wine. The greatest Saffredi ever made. (JS)

Vinous
Elisabetta Geppetti’s 2004 Saffredi shows the sexiness and silkiness of this great Tuscan vintage. Here it is the expressive bouquet and silky tannins that stand out most. The 2004 can be enjoyed today and over the next decade or so. Saffredi is one of my favorite Maremma wines and 2004 is one of the top vintages. (AG)

Wine Advocate
The DNA profile of the Fattoria le Pupille 2004 Saffredi is different because this is the first vintage that sees Syrah instead of Alicante in the blend. The bouquet comes out in full force with lots of rich dark fruit and tannins that are still aggressive today, some 20 years after the harvest. The growing season saw four big summer storms and is considered a cool vintage overall. Indeed, the freshness of the fruit is intact, and there is a hint of dried green herb or rosemary. This bottle is holding on nicely. (ML)

Wine Enthusiast
Saffredi is one of the most exciting super Tuscans of the year. The blend is Cabernet, Merlot and Alicante and the results of underscore the immense potential of Maremma. The wine is vibrant, intense and sprightly with an outstandingly complex offering of pristine aromas: ripe cherry, floral essences, red apple and subdued almond. *Cellar Selection*
