Feb 15th, 2022Truly outstanding CCGS, soul of a Flaccianello with the heart of a Napa cab. Cola and compote. Rich, even sexy. Best after a quick decant.

This -08 Mazzei is dark purple slightly oily; has a nose of decadent overripe dark fruit (plums, figs, mulberries), dusty ’sangiovesc’ diesel, pencil shavings, mineral and wood chips; dry on the palate with fine tannins and pleasant structure, same fruits as on the nose, and a medium-length finish. It is silkier than younger tuscans and has more earth and depth but perhaps lacking in elegans. Expected more.

Excellent chianti with berries and eucalyptus tannins. Good balance and not too pricy.
