Fattoria Le Pupille, Toscana SolAlto 2022

Fattoria Le Pupille SolAlto 2022 is an elegant Tuscan dessert wine from one of Maremma’s pioneering estates. Crafted from late-harvested white grapes, it combines luscious sweetness with bright natural freshness—a refined alternative to heavier fortified sweet wines. The wine reflects the estate’s innovative spirit, which helped establish southern Tuscany as a source of internationally acclaimed wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, SolAlto shows a luminous golden colour. Its aromatic profile is generous and complex, with notes of ripe stone fruit, honey, candied citrus, dried apricot and delicate floral nuances. On the palate, it is rich and velvety, balanced by lively acidity that keeps the sweetness fresh rather than cloying. The finish is long, layered and gently spicy, with lingering flavours of honeyed fruit and citrus. This is a dessert wine that can be enjoyed in its youth for its vibrant fruit character, but the combination of sweetness and acidity also gives it excellent medium- to long-term ageing potential. With time, expect increasingly complex notes of dried fruit, caramel and toasted honey.

Production
SolAlto is produced at Fattoria Le Pupille in Maremma, southern Tuscany, where the Mediterranean climate and warm, sunny growing season favour the development of concentrated, fully ripe grapes. The fruit is harvested late in the season, allowing sugars and aromas to intensify while preserving the freshness essential to a balanced sweet wine. The grapes are carefully selected and gently vinified to retain their aromatic character and concentrated fruit expression; further technical details of the 2022 cuvée are not specified.

Food & Serving
Serve SolAlto lightly chilled, at approximately 8–10°C. It is an excellent match for foie gras, blue cheeses, aged hard cheeses and desserts featuring fruit, almonds, vanilla or caramel. It also pairs beautifully with a fruit tart or can be enjoyed on its own as an after-dinner wine. Decanting is generally unnecessary, although a brief period in the glass allows its aromas to open; older bottles may benefit from careful decanting if sediment has formed.

Producer
The name Le Pupille refers to the two hilltop farms overlooking the medieval village of Pereta—like eyes watching over the landscape. Fattoria Le Pupille is a true pioneer of Maremma and today farms approximately 75 hectares of vineyards spread across the region’s varied terrain. Elisabetta Geppetti transformed the family estate into a modern, innovative winery, while Sangiovese remains central to its identity and accounts for much of its vineyard plantings. The estate’s reputation was firmly established by the first Saffredi vintage in 1987, a landmark wine that helped put Maremma on the international map for quality.
