For 26 generations, the Mazzei family has been producing Italian wines from their historic Castello di Fonterutoli estate in Tuscany, as well as in Maremma, Sicily and the Veneto. A blend of 65% Sangiovese, 30% Merlot & 5% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits and sweet spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with cacao and rustic spice. Fine tannins on medium finish ending with fruit character. Drink now, no aging benefit.

Ruby colored. Very aromatic fruity aroma with some gravel or earth notes. Maybe strawberry or raspberry. Light bodied. Medium low tannins. Medium low acidity. Okay flavors - kind of flat or meh. Overall good but wouldn’t go out of way to buy again.
