"Monumental": that's what the makers of Castello di Fonterutoli themselves write about their Mazzei Siepi 2020. And what can we say: they're right. The red wine from Tuscany is an outstanding creation. The blend of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Merlot from the Chianti Classico region has enchanted international wine critics. "An exceptionally beautiful wine. I love it," says Decanter (98 points), for example, while Monica Larner writes in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (95 points): "The Mazzei 2020 Siepi is a magnificent vintage."

The bouquet of the Italian red wine seduces with its complexity and the wonderful interplay of fruit, spice and floral notes. "Graphite and pencil come through, along with violets and blackberries. Also some tar and asphalt," writes James Suckling, who awards 98. Castello di Fonterutoli itself discovers crunchy elderberries, plums, berries, sandalwood and tobacco on the nose, while Decanter says of the bouquet: "Dried herbs and sweet spices on the nose, forest notes with blackberry fruit, concentrated and expressive." Cherry notes also characterize the bouquet.

On the palate, the Mazzei Siepi 2020 is dry, wonderfully soft and at the same time crisp and fresh, with impressive elegance and depth. The fruitiness is fascinating. "Such a smooth transition on the palate, the tannins glide over the tongue and give the sweet strawberry, raspberry and plum fruit time to expand in the mouth," enthuses Decanter. Aromas of blueberry and blackberry also enrich the play of flavors. Everything is round and in perfect balance, with a fabulous length.

This Super Tuscan matured for 18 months in French oak barrels, 70% of which were new barrels. The Merlot was matured in barriques (225 liter barrels), the Sangiovese in tonneaux (500 liter barrels). The blend was then aged for three months in cement tanks.

The Mazzei Siepi 2020 is already a real treat. However, it has enormous ageing potential. Suckling writes: "Already ready to drink, but will age gracefully for decades." The makers of Castello di Fonterutoli expect it to age for more than 20 years.

Enjoy the Mazzei family's creation with a fine blue cheese. More pleasure is not possible.

Das Bouquet verführt mit frischen Aromen von grünen Äpfeln, Zitrusfrüchten und weißen Pfirsichen, untermalt von floralen Noten und einem Hauch von Butterkeksen und Brioche. Die Trauben, 90% Chardonnay und 10% Pinot Noir, werden von Hand gelesen und nach der traditionellen Methode der Flaschengärung vinifiziert. Am Gaumen zeigt sich dieser Schaumwein mit einer knackigen Säure und einer cremigen Mousse, die die reifen Fruchtaromen und die subtilen Hefenoten perfekt ausbalanciert.Der Babylonstoren Sprankel MCC bietet einen erfrischenden, langen Abgang, der ideal zu leichten Vorspeisen, Meeresfrüchten, z.B. frischen Flusskrebsen oder als Aperitif zu besonderen Anlässen passt.Der Wein wurde als bester Cap Classique Schaumwein von John Platters Wine Guide 2024 ausgezeichnet.

Production area: Selected vineyards of Neviera and Casa Rossa, located in San Marzano district.

The climate is characterised by high temperatures all year round, very few rainfalls and a wide difference of temperature between night and day, which has a nice influence on the quality of grapes. This is the “classical” central area of d.o.c. ”Primitivo di Manduria” Harvest period: Third decade of August, first decade of September Vinification: Hand-harvested in small baskets.
