The 2015 Concerto di Fonterutoli is an 80-20 blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon with fruit sourced from the estate's historic Siepi and Fonterutoli vineyards. The wine offers evident muscle and exuberance. These qualities are directly linked to the long and warm growing season that characterized this vintage. The wine feels softly textured and rich in terms of mouthfeel, and it offers a long and attractive succession of dark fruit, spice and tobacco-like aromas. After being removed from the Mazzei portfolio, this wine returned to production in 2011<br/>
Producer
Marchesi Mazzei Castello di Fonterutoli
A long history, with close links to the wine world, the Mazzei family name can be traced to the Carmiganano region during the early 11th century. Their Tuscan estate, Castello di Fonterutoli has quite a distinguished past as well. The area was once used as a rest-stop between Florence and Siena throughout the Roman Empire. Retaining its original structure, the castle and its land have belonged to the Mazzei family since 1435. Today, after almost six centuries, Marchesi Mazzei continues in their quest for excellence, producing some Italy’s most sought-after and collectible wines. The estate boasts 650-hectares across the Chianti Classico territory. Of which 117 are planted to vines, including the Fonterutoli, Siepi, Badiola, Belvedere and Caggio vineyards. Shifting away from using Castello di Fonterutoli as their brand name, the family currently identifies their Chianti Classico and Coastal Tuscan productions under the Mazzei name. The Mazzei family consistently pushes the limits, expanding its horizons reaching new heights with their dynamic viticultural and vinification approaches. The estate crafts reference-point examples of the region vintage after vintage.
