Mazzei
Mazzei is a historic Tuscan wine family best known for Castello di Fonterutoli in Chianti Classico, producing high‑quality Sangiovese‑based wines alongside modern blends.
Mazzei blends tradition—parcel-by-parcel vinification, native yeasts—with innovation like micro-vinifications of 36 Sangiovese clones and amphora aging for complexity. Current leaders Francesco, Filippo, and younger generations prioritize terroir-driven balance over heavy oak.
