Established in 1435, the Mazzei family is one of Tuscany’s oldest wine dynasties and they have been cultivating vineyards and crafting fine wine for over 600 years in Fonterutoli in the heart of Chianti Classico. Leading the portfolio today are the Marchesi Mazzei, brothers Francesco and Filippo, as well as Filippo’s son Giovanni, the 25th generation. All the estates are farmed with a commitment to reducing environmental impact and fostering sustainability. From their state-of-the-art lowimpact, gravity fed cellar to their massal selections and clonal research, the current generation pursues innovation that elevates their wines and protects their ecosystem. This balance of preservation and evolution is rooted in the Castello di Fonterutoli, the historic family seat. Poggio Badiola is a contemporary wine sourced from vineyards at higher altitudes in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. This wine combines the freshness and elegance of Sangiovese with the soft structure of Merlot.
A juicy red marked by bright cherry and raspberry fruit. Open and easy, with light tannins lining the moderately long finish, this is otherwise balanced. Sangiovese and Merlot. Drink now. 20,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported. Bruce Sanderson, 8/31/2023.
