Description

Saffredi has always been the icon of Fattoria Le Pupille. Born from the desire and intuition of Elisabetta, who, with the precious help of Giacomo Tachis, wanted to produce a great wine in Maremma, it is a special dedication to Fredi, the man who inspired her passion for wine.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1978
  • Oenologist: Andrea Lupi, Ettore Arturo Rizzi
  • Bottles produced: 450.000
  • Hectares: 80
A succession of gentle hills watching over the majestic contour of the Monte Amiata. It’s precisely from one of these soft and sensual hills that the story of Fattoria Le Pupille begins and leads it to how it is seen today: a heterogenous reality.

In the course of the years, the originating core of the winery effectively enriched itself of new grape particles, reaching today 75 hectares of vineyards, distributed like many mosaic pieces between many stunning areas of Maremma. Another 20 hectares are destined to the olives, and then cereals and cork oaks alternate with pastures reaching up to 420 hectares of overall property.
