Together with Italian winemaker Nicola Tucci, the family has earned medals at international competitions, and Lupi stands at the very top of their range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA flagship dedicated to a family of wolves\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLupi means \"wolves\". A small family of wolves really does live around Gitana's vineyards, and this wine was created in their honor: a wine of strength, loyalty and quiet dignity. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are joined by Saperavi, the deeply colored grape of the Caucasus, fermented with indigenous yeasts in large oak vats. The wine then matures two full years in oak barrels and another 14 months in barriques before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFor the big nights and the cellar\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerful yet dignified, Lupi is a table's natural centerpiece. Magnificent now, it also has the structure to rest another decade in your cellar. Open it for anniversaries, give it to a wine lover you respect, or pair it with its white counterpart \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/danielswine.club\/en\/products\/la-petit-sophie\"\u003eLa Petit Sophie\u003c\/a\u003e for the full Gitana story in two bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep, intense ruby with purple reflections; slow, glossy legs on the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDense blackberry and cassis layered with vanilla, chocolate, coffee beans and licorice.

Firm, confident tannins and generous acidity are beautifully matched, and the long élevage wraps everything in a polished, velvety texture.
