The Mazzei Siepi is a blend of 50% Merlot and 50% Sangiovese coming from one of the best vineyards of Castello di Fonterutoli. The use of blend and especially this ratio makes this a so-called Super Tuscan (too much Merlot according to the old-fashioned Italian Appelation rules). This is what many Italian top wines have been doing for years (Tignanello, Sassicaia, etc). The grapes have aged for 18 months in French Oak. The Siepi is a very elegant, soft, warm wine with dark fruit in the nose such as cherries, blackberry and blueberry, but also some leather, cedar and espresso. Beautiful aromas in the nose but what makes the wine very unique is the mouthfeel, Warm, elegant, refined is the mouth of this classically-looking wine. We have also observed this at the Namrot of Ghizzano, which also has an almost Pomreol-like wine, but with an Italian twist. De Gambero Rosso wrote about Mazzei Siepi: "One of the 50 wines that changed Italy's wine style". It will be told to you!
