Crafted with meticulous care in the lush vineyards of Italy, this exquisite red wine represents the pinnacle of Italian winemaking.
Lupicaia is a harmonious blend that captures the essence of the Tuscan coast, a renowned region for producing wines of profound complexity and depth.

On the palate, the Lupicaia Red Blend unfolds in layers of velvety tannins, enlivened by a vibrant acidity that leads to a long, satisfying finish. It boasts a cornucopia of flavors, from ripe, dark fruits like blackberries and plums to refined notes of spice, leather, and tobacco, all underpinned by a subtle mineral undertone that speaks to its terroir.
Matured in French oak barrels, this wine gains a sophisticated complexity and a silky texture that makes it a perfect accompaniment to hearty dishes, enriching every dining experience. It’s not just a wine but an invitation to explore the rich tapestry of Italian winemaking tradition.

The Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant TeamTasting notes
Nose
Cassis and blackberry lead, then cedar, tobacco leaf, and a savory Mediterranean herb note with a mineral edge.
Palate
Full bodied and firm, with polished tannins wrapping dark fruit, cedar, and tobacco. A mineral, savory thread runs through to a long, structured close.
Finish
Long and firm, echoing cassis, tobacco, and a stony mineral note that lingers.
How to serve and what to pour it with
Serve at cellar temperature, around 60 to 65 degrees, in a Bordeaux glass. Decant an hour before drinking to soften the tannins and open the aromatics. If you can, cellar a few years for more integration. Pour a small taste first to check how it is showing.
