93 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "The Fattoria le Pupille 2020 Morellino di Scansano Riserva is Sangiovese cut with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. It ages in Slavonian oak casks for 15 months. This wine delivers a zippy, especially bright drinking style with cherry, violets and menthol notes at the back. Those precise aromas, plus the wine's elegant mid-weight texture make this a terrific food option. Drink: 2024-2032. (Mar 2024)"
93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2020 Morellino di Scansano Riserva is another compelling wine from Elisabetta Geppetti. Dark and explosive, the 2020 has so much to offer. A blast of dark plum, chocolate, licorice, spice, leather and menthol sweeps across the palate. Readers will find a Morellino of uncommon density and nuance. Superb. Drink: 2023-2032. (Aug 2023)"
93 points James Suckling: "Bright cherries, spice and hints of dried flowers. Also rose stem. Medium-bodied with firm and lightly chewy tannins. Bright. Needs time to soften. Better after 2025. (7/10/12)"
92 points Wine Enthusiast: "The nose leans sweet, with vanilla, cherries, strawberries and a touch of blood orange, but undertones of spices and earth emerge with time. Cherries also star on the palate, before buoyant acid lifts a latent heat into an astringent finish, where the nose's blood orange note blossoms. (Dec 2023)"
91 points James Button (Decanter): "The Riserva Morellino di Scansano is a 90% Sangiovese and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon blend aged for 15 months in 20-40hl Slavonian oak barrels. It's a classy wine, especially given the price, providing a depth of juicy, sapid red fruits alongside a complexity of sous bois, wood and spice. There's good freshness and enough structure to age it for a few years. Great with roast meats. Drinking Window: 2024-2030. (Mar 2024)"
91 points Falstaff Guide: "Medium bright ruby red colour with a brightening on the rim. Filigree bouquet with fruity and balsamic notes, as well as subtle savouriness. On the palate shows fine tannin structure, pleasant juiciness and light minerality in the aftertaste. (Oct 2023)"
90 points/'Smart Buys,' Wine Spectator,/i>: "This rich red is full of plum, cherry, iron, vanilla and oak spice flavors. The tannins are firm, leaving a light cherry pit bitterness on the persistent finish. Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2026. (8/31/24)"
