Tasting Notes
In the glass, Lupicaia 1994 shows a deep ruby-red color with mature garnet tones at the rim. The nose is layered and inviting, with aromas of blackcurrant, plum, spice, tobacco, and subtle earthy notes that speak to its age and complexity.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and refined, with ripe tannins, well-integrated oak, and a long, graceful finish. The fruit remains expressive, supported by savory notes and a lingering mineral edge. This is a wine with excellent aging potential in proper cellaring, and even now it offers impressive harmony and depth.
Production
Produced in Tuscany at Castello del Terriccio, Lupicaia comes from carefully selected vineyard parcels shaped by the region’s warm Mediterranean climate and coastal influences. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot is vinified to preserve concentration, structure, and aromatic complexity, with an emphasis on careful extraction and maturation to build elegance over power.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted red meats, game, braised dishes, and well-aged cheeses. Serve it at around 16–18°C for the best expression of its aromas and texture. Decanting is recommended, especially if the bottle has been stored for a long time, to help the wine open up fully and show its nuanced character.
