List of products by brand Mazzei

That of the Marquises Mazzei is a family that can boast an unparalleled heritage steeped in the Tuscan winemaking tradition. Theirs is in fact a story that began many centuries ago, in the medieval village of Castello di Fonterutoli, and that has continued for 24 generations. A village, that of Fonterutoli, which overlooks the Val d'Elsa, and which, belonging to the Mazzei family since 1435, still retains its original appearance of a quiet country village: a few houses, the church of San Miniato and the villa built at the end of 1500 in place of the fortified castle.

The estate is located a few kilometers south of Castellina, in the heart of Chianti Classico, and includes over six hundred hectares of land, of which more than one hundred are planted with vineyards and are located in the most beautiful areas of the appellation: Fonterutoli, Siepi, Badiola, Belvedere and Caggio. Vineyards that have made the history of Chianti Classico, mainly cultivated with Sangiovese, a variety that has found its land of choice here, capable of expressing great aromas and elegance in the higher areas, structure and power in the lower ones. It is therefore no coincidence that Castello di Fonterutoli is considered as one of the most significant wineries in the entire Chianti Classico area, always looking for new qualitative frontiers, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. A work and a path that have led the wines of the Castle to be renowned worldwide, and to constitute a point of reference for the whole Chianti Classico. But it doesn't end there: the propensity to always search for new challenges and the continuous search for excellence have pushed the Mazzei to expand their horizons towards new frontiers in the field of viticulture and winemaking, in addition to Chianti Classico, also in the Tuscan Maremma. , with Tenuta Belguardo, and in Sicily with Tenuta Zisola. Realities that today produce wines with a clear territorial imprint, true ambassadors of their respective denominations.
