Note di degustazione
The Mazzei 2020 Concerto di Fonterutoli comes from a vintage that saw good rainfall and a long hot summer that ensured easy fruit ripening thanks to ample water reserves. Additional rainfall occurred in June and September to help reduce water stress and resulted in grapes with thick skins and well-ripened phenols. You taste that here, and there is some grittiness to the tannins with very soft fruit flavors and bold extraction. This wine appears ripe and rich overall with good balance in terms of its acidity.

Current vintage. Bright transparent crimson. Not much nose yet. Lots of ripeness and a happy blend in which the Sangiovese tames and adds zest to the Cabernet. But nice sweetness too. Dry (not drying) finish. This should develop well. (JR)
Vibrant aromatics, fragrant baked spice, rich raspberry fruits, crushed roses, mandarin peel, smoked earth, brushed leather, this has this beautiful concentration to it, but also precision, character, sappy texure, the warm welcome of Tuscany. Winemaker Gionata Puglignani, owners Mazzei family. Ageing 18 months in small French oak barrels for the Cabernet Sauvignon, larger sized for the Sangiovese, 70% new, plus three months in concrete tanks before release.
The 2020 Concerto di Fonterutoli is bright and punchy, with terrific freshness and tons of nuance. Plum, pomegranate, spice, new leather and blood orange are front and center. The 2020 is a gorgeous wine that captures the essence of the house style beautifully. Today, the purity of the fruit really jumps out of the glass. Superb.
