Vollendeter Supertuscan, Wärme und Frische, Eleganz und Harmonie im Einklang! Süßer Duft von hochreifen Kirschen und Beeren mit schönen floralen Noten. Auch im Mund reif und mit viel Fruchtcharme, würzig und angenehme Säure. Der Saffredi hat Biss und eine schöne Länge mit reifem Tannin. (superiore.de)

"Sattes, funkelndes Rubinviolett. Beeindruckende, satte Nase, duftet nach reifen, dunklen Brombeeren, Johannisbeeren, dazu etwas frische Feigen und edle Bitterschokolade. Sattes, dichtes Tannin, in Ansatz und Verlauf viel präsente, reife Frucht, langer Nachhall." Falstaff

"Impeccably lifted and gracious on the palate, the 2011 Saffredi lifts from the glass with expressive floral notes and beautifully articulated fruit. Overall, the 2011 is an elegant, restrained Saffredi that emphasizes finesse over power, although there is plenty of vintage 2011 sexiness. More importantly, the 2011 is a big step up from the 2010. Sage, rosemary and tobacco are some of the many notes that add complexity as the wine continues to open up in the glass." Antonio Galloni

"I love the aromas of black truffles, rosemary, dark fruits, rose petals and stones. It's shows so many characteristics of Tuscany on the nose. Full body with super-fine tannins and a long finish. Tannins and all in place. Wonderful texture." James Suckling

"Der 2011er Saffredi ist Maremma-Weltklasse!" René Gabriel (20 Punkte)
 

"The 2011 Saffredi opens to thick, dark extraction and large scale aromatic intensity. This was a warm vintage and you can feel the softness in the ripe cherry and blackberry flavors offered by the Merlot. The Cabernet component is also evident thanks to pressed rose and grilled Mediterranean herb. Saffredi is a wine built for long cellar aging, yet this vintage can also be readily consumed in the near term." Robert Parker
