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 70% Sangiovese & 30% Merlot, deep Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits and sweet spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with cacao and pepper spice. Fine soft tannins on medium finish ending with fruit character. Drink now, grab a pizza, no aging benefit.

Delicious and rich aromas. A little more fruit than structure. Easy drinking and very pleasing. Got as a gift from MC Will need to look for it or order when I’m there next.
