“Le Cupole di Trinoro” Rosso Toscana IGT 2019
Cupole 2019 shows dark fruit intensity and an impressive aromatic spectrum with cherries, blackberries and plums. In the mouth, a hint of sweetness, a finely accentuated texture with a phenolic density and structure that gives it volume and excellent ageing potential. Added to this is a value that is unparalleled in Tuscany. SUPERIORE.DE
"Appealing aromas of black cherry, raspberry jam and plum pick up accent notes of earth and bitter almond in this solid red, which is balanced and shows fine length on the finish." Wine Spectator
"This is a terrific value proposition. The 2019 Le Cupole is a blend of 47% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Petit Verdot. The first vintage was made in 1995, and although these four varieties have been used in the blend since the beginning, the various percentages change according to vintage conditions. This long 2019 growing season was a little more challenging for the late-ripening Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. The wine delivers plenty of rich concentration and ripeness, but there is also a pureness to the fruit that happily underscores its cheerful and informal personality." Robert Parker

“Trinoro” Bianco Toscana IGT 2019
Bianco Trinoro is made from 100% Semillon from a tiny sandy plot in the highest locations of the Trinoro winery. The parcel is located at about 600 metres above sea level and covers about 5,000 square metres. The vineyard was partially planted in 2001 and completed in 2006 with vines from Bordeaux; here, as elsewhere on the estate, the vines are densely planted one metre apart in the Bordelais style.
Very aromatic with ripe, fruity notes balanced by a nice freshness and acidity, great length and a very good ageing potential! SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling straw yellow with slight green reflections. In the nose with a delicate muscat tone, a small potpourri of citrus and stone fruit, reverberating with green peppers. Medium weight on the palate at the start, has fine juiciness, then builds more and more on the tongue, with good length and a slightly salty finish." Falstaff
"Only in its third year, this Semillon-based white is a relatively new experiment for a vintner who has made important strides in modern Italian red wine. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Bianco di Trinoro is beautifully smooth and silky rich in texture. The intensity of the mouthfeel gives momentum and a lasting flavor profile. Orchard fruit, pear, apricot and fleshy apple segue to a mild point of mineral or crushed stone. The fruit is harvested from one of the estate's highest plots with sandy soils. Production is only 2,446 bottles." Robert Parker

Limitation of 2 articles per customer“Campo di Tenaglia” Cabernet Franc Toscana IGT 2018
Just 1,900 bottles of this 0.8 ha Cabernet Franc single vineyard "Campo di Tenaglia" (at an altitude of approx. 550 m, mainly limestone) reach the specialised trade and the menus of the best restaurants worldwide. Impenetrable, dark wine with a bouquet of flint, crushed minerals and some chalk. The texture is rich and opulent, but always supple with a hint of minerality. Campo di Tenaglia is one of the juiciest Cabernet Francs we have ever had in the glass. Beautiful, long final and certainly great storage potential. SUPERIORE.DE
"Deep, dark ruby with violet glints. Concentrated nose, full of ripe plums and cinnamon, dark currant. Salty and juicy on the palate, spreads out richly, lots of tightly woven tannin, entwined with sweet melting, firm pressure on the final, richly tobacco." Falstaff
"The 2018 Campo di Tenaglia, 100% Cabernet Franc, emerges from a tiny parcel measuring less than a hectare planted on limestone. Intensely floral and saline, the 2018 is bright and vibrant from the first taste, all in a medium-bodied style that offers considerable appeal. Time in the glass brings out a whole range of savory and intensely mineral notes to complement a core of bright red-toned fruit." Vinous
"Andrea Franchetti's Tenuta di Trinoro 2018 Campo di Tenaglia offers a classic interpretation of variety, vintage and territory. The wine shows the ample abundance and generosity of sunny Tuscany (with a powerful 16% alcohol content), contrasted against the linearity and sharpness of this mighty grape. Some cool spots during the growing season have contributed to the phenolic power of the wine, its lasting structure and the vivid freshness of the aromas. To the palate, this wine is enormously rich and generous with layers of black fruit, smoke, spice and barbecued meat. Among these three wines in the series, the Campo di Tenaglia delivers extra density and concentration." Robert Parker

Limitation of 3 articles per customer“Campo di Magnacosta” Cabernet Franc Toscana IGT 2018
Just 2,100 bottles of this 1.5 ha single vineyard Cabernet Franc "Campo di Magnacosta" (a former riverbed with mainly clay, gravel and crushed stone soil) reach the specialised trade and the menus of the best restaurants worldwide. The vines were planted in the mid-1990s and come from Pomerol. In terms of aromatic intensity, Magnacosta is probably the most sensually elegant representative of the house's three great site cabernets. It has great straightness, but somewhat less power and intensity. It subtly combines black fruit aromas with spicy notes, tar and antique leather. It is already silky and elegant and will certainly gain in finesse over the years. SUPERIORE.DE
"Rich, deep dark ruby. Very compact nose with lots of rich cassis fruit, ripe blackberries, plus some tobacco. Lots of ripe berry fruit on the palate, opens with fine, slightly grippy tannin, earthy notes on the final." Falstaff
"The 2018 Campo di Magnacosta is ample and expressive, with a real sense of textural breadth that distinguishes it in this range. Super-ripe dark cherry, gravel, mint, spice and leather tones give the 2018 striking complexity. Incisive tannins need time to soften. Readers who can wait will be rewarded with a fabulous, deeply expressive wine. The 2018 Campo di Magnacosta is 100% Cabernet Franc from a site on an old river bed." Vinous
"Campo di Magnacosta is the lightest and more feminine Cabernet Franc of Trinoro's cru (Magnacosta, Camagi, Tenaglia) based on this grape variety. It is a 1.5 hectare parcel of river gravel and silt on the valley's bottom, where an old stream ate into a hill (hence the name: magna is eat and costa is hillside). It was planted over 20 years ago with cuttings from a vineyard in Pomerol. Intense and elegant on the nose with an intriguing restrained brumble fruit, dried eucalyptus and spices, it combines great fruit definition and creamy palate with tight-knit tannins and lively acidity in background. Warm on the finish, yet well balanced." Decanter
"This is one of three single-vineyard expressions made by the talented Mr. Franchetti. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2018 Campo di Magnacosta (with only 1,950 bottles released) is powerful and complex. Campo di Magnacosta is also very elegant, showing a slow and careful approach that takes on volume and latitude as the wine opens aromatically. Give it time. Black fruit, Spanish cedar, charred meat, crushed river stone and exotic spice take center stage. The mouthfeel offers a lot of texture and succulence, but the finish is linear and structured. The wine's length ultimately translates into elegance." Robert Parker

"Powerful forest fruit aromas flanked by balsamic notes, fine minerality; juicy on the palate, plenty of richness and tightly woven tannins, the finish punchy and multi-faceted." Vinum
"Rich, deep dark ruby-violet with a black core. Intense and deep nose of tobacco and black truffle, then lots of cassis, behind it fine balsamic notes. Full-bodied and gripping on the palate, densely packed with tannin that opens up in many layers, dark berry and long, still shows itself very young." Falstaff
"Dense and tightly wound with a matrix of tannins, this rich red is also lively and harmonious, laced with cherry, blackberry, iron and tobacco flavors. Stays fresh and balanced on the lingering, savory finish." Wine Spectator
"The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Campo di Tenaglia draws its fruit from a 0.8-hectare site with sandstone clay soils. This vineyard also boasts the deepest soils for the plant's root systems to explore, with more than two meters of crushed stone, calcareous rock and heavy sands. Like the other monovarietal wines in this collection, fermentation kicks off in stainless steel vats and aging continues in French barrique, concluding with a resting period in cement. What I notice most here is the soft ripeness and roundness of the fruit. Campo di Tenaglia shows a loose-knit texture with plenty of primary intensity in the form of blackberry preserves, spice and smoky tar." Robert Parker

Only 1,650 bottles of this 1.5 ha Cabernet Franc single vineyard "Campo di Camagi" (mainly quartz and limestone) reach the specialised trade and the menus of the best restaurants worldwide. Campo di Camagi is a very precise and focused wine. The high quality of the Cabernet Franc grape is noticeable here with every sip. Black fruits and spices are in elegant unity here and the full, racy body of this exceptional wine will only fully reveal itself in many years. Please be sure to put this bottle far away! SUPERIORE.DE
"At first smells closed, then all the more seductive of dark forest fruits and undergrowth, also spicy notes; concentrated in the mouth, powerful tannin, lots of juice and character. Should still mature." Vinum
"Rich, sparkling ruby-violet. Smells of ripe blackberries and dark currants, followed by red beet and tobacco, some pepper. On the palate gripping, dense tannin, lots of spicy components, lively and hearty, dark chocolate in the finish, still needs long maturity." Falstaff
"Fresh and focused, this red features a line of pure cherry flavors, along with black currant, tobacco, iron and olive notes, all supported by a deft use of oak, firm yet pliable tannins and a long, detailed finish. Shows fine overall harmony and potential." Wine Spectator
"This vineyard site sits at 550 meters in altitude, with clay soils spread over 1.5 hectares. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Campo di Camagi is another site-specific expression of Cabernet Franc from a vintner who has produced some of the greatest expressions of this Bordelais grape made in Italy. What distinguishes this bottle next to, say, the Campo di Magnacosta (with looser alluvial limestone and sandstone soils) is the wine's overall sense of concentration and fruit weight. It is full and generous, leaving a big impact on all the senses. This wine packs a powerful punch with black fruit, spice, tobacco and scorched earth." Robert Parker

"If you love Cabernet Franc, please direct your attention here. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Campo di Magnacosta is a study in the intensity, power and depth of this grape. Campo di Magnacosta was the first of several single-vineyard parcels planted to this variety. The first bottling from this 1.5-hectare site was made in 2011, and this year a mere 2,122 bottles were released. The wine is profound and pure with luscious dark fruit, sharp minerality, spice and etched contours. You get that distinctive hint of slate or pencil shaving that is especially characteristic of this Cabernet Franc. Its full-bodied texture wraps smoothly over the palate, and the tannins have been expertly integrated." Robert Parker

"Already quite sweet and mellow. Good bite - attractive combination of ripe fruit, tanginess (almost like Sangiovese) and amazing persistence. You don't actually notice the high alcohol." Jancis Robinson
"The 2016 Campo di Camagi is precise, polished and bright. It is perhaps a bit more reserved or closed than the others in this series of single-vineyard Cabernet Francs, but it should open up with due time. This will be an interesting wine to watch as it continues its evolution. It has spent eight months in new barrique and 11 in concrete, with only 1,650 bottles made. This is a very Tuscan expression of Cabernet Franc with Mediterranean herb and sun-drenched fruit flavors. The alcohol is measured at 15%, making it the highest among this set of three single-vineyard wines (Campo di Magnacosta, Campo di Tenaglia and Campo di Camagi)." Robert Parker
"The cherry, black currant and floral aromas and flavors of this powerful red are married to a plush texture, with licorice, tobacco, graphite and black pepper notes adding depth as this plays out on the long finish." Wine Spectator
"The 2016 Campo di Camagi, 100% Cabernet Franc from a parcel planted on quartz and limestone, is the most mineral and savory of the three pure Franc wines in this range from Trinoro. Graphite, gravel, smoke, lavender, sage and menthol all add shades of complexity. A wine of explosive power, precision and energy, the 2016 is simply tremendous. That's all there is to it." VINOUS

“Palazzi” Rosso Toscana IGT 2019
Andrea Franchetti began positioning Palazzi as an equal red alongside his flagship Tenuta di Trinoro in the 1990s, with the aim of producing two exceptional wines that evoke the left and right banks of Bordeaux.
Just three words: power, intensity and concentration. With a very manageable production of 1,660 bottles, here comes a full-throttle Tuscan wine that exudes generous black fruit, spice and sweet tobacco all the time. There is also black cherry and plum, which give the wine soft contours and sweetness. On the palate, it is firm, well-structured and delights with a mouth-filling richness that is second to none. Take a good piece of red meat, marinate it in rosemary and olive oil before heading to the charcoal grill and then embark on this monumental adventure. SUPERIORE.DE
"Rich ruby with a black core. Intense and inviting nose with notes of cocoa, blackberry, plum and fine spices. Dense and concentrated on the palate, very lush, grippy, savoury tannins, rich tobacco on the long final." Falstaff
"This vibrant red is pure and well-defined, with cherry, raspberry and floral aromas and flavors detailed by iron and wild thyme, supported from dense yet refined tannins. Excellent length." Wine Spectator
"The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Palazzi is a pure expression of Merlot with incoming fruit from the Palazzi vineyard that is characterized by dense clay soils. The wine's intensity is what stands out most, and that power is fueled by lovely nuances of black fruit, spice, sweet tobacco and baker's chocolate. Palazzi excels in terms of mouthfeel. The smooth richness and deep softness achieved here is only possible with this grape. Furthermore, it seems only possible in this spectacular, sun-drenched corner of undiscovered Tuscany known as Sarteano." Robert Parker

Only 1,650 bottles of this 1.5 ha Cabernet Franc single vineyard "Campo di Camagi" (mainly quartz and limestone) reach the specialised trade and the menus of the best restaurants worldwide. Campo di Camagi is a very precise and focused wine. The high quality of the Cabernet Franc grape is noticeable here with every sip. Black fruits and spices are in elegant unity here and the full, racy body of this exceptional wine will only fully reveal itself in many years. Please be sure to put this bottle far away! SUPERIORE.DE
"At first smells closed, then all the more seductive of dark forest fruits and undergrowth, also spicy notes; concentrated in the mouth, powerful tannin, lots of juice and character. Should still mature." Vinum
"Rich, sparkling ruby-violet. Smells of ripe blackberries and dark currants, followed by red beet and tobacco, some pepper. On the palate gripping, dense tannin, lots of spicy components, lively and hearty, dark chocolate in the finish, still needs long maturity." Falstaff
"Fresh and focused, this red features a line of pure cherry flavors, along with black currant, tobacco, iron and olive notes, all supported by a deft use of oak, firm yet pliable tannins and a long, detailed finish. Shows fine overall harmony and potential." Wine Spectator
"This vineyard site sits at 550 meters in altitude, with clay soils spread over 1.5 hectares. The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Campo di Camagi is another site-specific expression of Cabernet Franc from a vintner who has produced some of the greatest expressions of this Bordelais grape made in Italy. What distinguishes this bottle next to, say, the Campo di Magnacosta (with looser alluvial limestone and sandstone soils) is the wine's overall sense of concentration and fruit weight. It is full and generous, leaving a big impact on all the senses. This wine packs a powerful punch with black fruit, spice, tobacco and scorched earth." Robert Parker

Limitation of 1 articles per customer“Tenuta di Trinoro” Rosso Toscana IGT 2019
Of all his wines, the flagship Tenuta di Trinoro offers the deepest insight into Andrea Franchetti's winemaking. Andrea changes the proprietary blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot from soils of limestone and clay every year depending on the quality and quantity of the harvest. The grapes are always the best from that vintage. Franchetti's own style is evident in each of his wines and with each vintage.
This dark, full and concentrated red wine already shows a good amount of its potential in the bouquet and the ripe, fruit-driven appeal that has distinguished it for years and helped it to achieve world fame. On the palate, then, a spectrum of flavours ranging from deep dark fruits to spices, mahogany and grilled herbs. The texture is tapered, well-proportioned and ethereal. The fruit zest and opulent flavour concert is led by highly elegant tannins into a seemingly endless finish. Monumental, but not a monster. Powerful, but not a muscleman - everything is in the right place here. SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling, rich ruby with fine violet shimmer. Opens with fine spicy notes, balsamic components, after mint and eucalyptus, then dark berry fruit, blackberry and mulberry, some white pepper. On the palate a lot of fine-meshed tannin, opening in layers, precise and clear, hardly ending finish, terrific stuff!" Falstaff
"According to Andrea Franchetti, '2019 was the latest ripening vintage we’ve seen in 10 years'. Compared to the massive yet never rustic extractions of the past which resulted in excellent ageability, now the wine shows more balance. The blend changes each year based on which grapes are the best from that vintage: 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc in 2019. Bottled during the waning moon at the beginning of June 2021 after eight months in new oak and another 12 in concrete, this is less austere than usual with an extremely pure bramble fruit character, lifted and mineral, with subtle aromatic herbs. The fleshy palate shines for its balance, with brilliant integrated acidity and tannins chiselled to perfection." Decanter
"This pure red is defined by its lively structure, marshaling the black cherry, black currant, violet and mineral flavors to a lingering aftertaste. Thyme, sage and oak spice accents add detail as this reveals harmony and superb length." Wine Spectator
"This is a stunning wine and one of the best in this report covering the icons of Tuscany. Fruit is sourced from the very best parcels, and the blending formula changes according to vintage and the style desired by vintner Andrea Franchetti. These vineyard parcels vary in altitude, ranging from 400 to 600 meters above sea level, and the soils are quite varied with pockets of clay, sand and rock. The Trinoro is profoundly deep and pure with a solid core of black fruit that is framed by an elegant contour of spice, tobacco, smoke and crushed stone. To the palate, the wine is long and the finish can be counted in minutes, but the entire experience is beautifully streamlined and velvety." Robert Parker

Limitation of 6 articles per customer“Palazzi” Rosso Toscana IGT 2019 · MAGNUM in OWC
Andrea Franchetti began positioning Palazzi as an equal red alongside his flagship Tenuta di Trinoro in the 1990s, with the aim of producing two exceptional wines that evoke the left and right banks of Bordeaux.
Just three words: power, intensity and concentration. With a very manageable production of 1,660 bottles, here comes a full-throttle Tuscan wine that exudes generous black fruit, spice and sweet tobacco all the time. There is also black cherry and plum, which give the wine soft contours and sweetness. On the palate, it is firm, well-structured and delights with a mouth-filling richness that is second to none. Take a good piece of red meat, marinate it in rosemary and olive oil before heading to the charcoal grill and then embark on this monumental adventure. SUPERIORE.DE
"Rich ruby with a black core. Intense and inviting nose with notes of cocoa, blackberry, plum and fine spices. Dense and concentrated on the palate, very lush, grippy, savoury tannins, rich tobacco on the long final." Falstaff
"This vibrant red is pure and well-defined, with cherry, raspberry and floral aromas and flavors detailed by iron and wild thyme, supported from dense yet refined tannins. Excellent length." Wine Spectator
"The Tenuta di Trinoro 2019 Palazzi is a pure expression of Merlot with incoming fruit from the Palazzi vineyard that is characterized by dense clay soils. The wine's intensity is what stands out most, and that power is fueled by lovely nuances of black fruit, spice, sweet tobacco and baker's chocolate. Palazzi excels in terms of mouthfeel. The smooth richness and deep softness achieved here is only possible with this grape. Furthermore, it seems only possible in this spectacular, sun-drenched corner of undiscovered Tuscany known as Sarteano." Robert Parker

It has quickly become a myth and wine lovers from all over the world are enthusiastic when they hear the name. We are talking about the Tenuta di Trinoro of the cult winemaker Andrea Franchetti, which lies in a godforsaken part of Tuscany south of the Brunello area. Here in the Val d'Orcia near the border to Umbria and Lazio, the charismatic and nephew of the famous American painter Cy Twombly, who is considered to be a little eccentric, thinks up and develops some very unusual red drops. The house's crescences are not based on the local Sangiovese, which is not particularly appreciated by the owner of the estate. Rather, the landowner chooses Bordelaiser varieties as the raw materials - first and foremost Cabernet Franc, but also its 'brother' Sauvignon as well as Merlot and a little Petit Verdot.
Franchetti, who has been composing his wines since the beginning of the nineties with a visionary mixture of art and craftsmanship, always makes the concentrated and complex alcoholic drops available on the market in small quantities and at high prices the best without following fashion trends. In the vineyards of the Tenuta di Trinoro, the vines, which stand at a high density of up to 10,000 plants per hectare, mature in seventeen parcels at 450 to 600 metres above sea level. The clayey and calcareous soils are interspersed with pebbles. With the vintage 2014 Franchetti for the first time vinified three Cabernet Franc vineyards separately. In addition to his exemplary company in the province of Siena, the unconventional lateral entrant with Passopisciaro is running another successful project on the island of Sicily, which is becoming increasingly important as a wine-growing region.
The power and structure of the intense drops from Trinoro, whose colour approaches that of black, is almost unique in Italy. The fully ripened grapes are due to the late harvest between the end of October and the beginning of November. The aromatic fullness and the almost overripe fruit of the plants ripening longer than usual in small barriques of French and Caucasian oak remind connoisseurs more of noble drops from the US sun state California than of Central Italy. Particularly in the wines of particularly hot years, a particularly high degree of complexity can be detected that cannot be automatically expected under such conditions. In the cellar, Franchetti's use of technology is not exaggerated. The owner, supported by Teresa Gaspar, a winemaker trained in Lisbon, ferments the must in small cement vats using indigenous yeasts. The globetrotter, who once distributed nobile labels in New York, has noticeably reduced the use of wood and the wines have become even more precise and a little slimmer in recent years. SUPERIORE.DE
"Andrea Franchetti doesn't have to prove anything anymore. He is the Yves Saint Laurent of Tuscan viticulture." Swiss wine newspaper
"If I were to attempt to summarize Franchetti's approach to wine, I would settle on the word: 'oneness.' Here we have a single man, who makes a wine of a single style at the only wine estate that exists in this unexplored region."Robert Parker
