Mean! Along with the hand gesture! What a wine! Great blend and the merlot is amazing in this! Super smooth with finesse and grace. Loads of dark fruit and zero acidity or stubborn tannins. Having with lamb and veal chops.

A good amount of vanilla/oak on the nose with dark fruit and tobacco. Palate is med body, med acid, med+ tannin. Lots to like here but strikes me as leaning new world. The acidity keeps it in check but I’m missing some subtlety. Try again in 3 years.

Maturo e complesso frutta a bacca nera, prugna viola e mirtillo, liquirizia cuoio tabacco e caffè. Sottofondo speziato e di erbe aromatiche. La maturità è ancora più evidente al palato accarezzato da tannini setosi e dove i picchi esplosivi che qualche anno fa erano dominanti oggi sono ben smussati. Resta un finale lungo e ampio. Esprime una certa tipicità Toscana, nonostante si guardi decisamente anche altrove. Nella sua piena maturità, avrà ancora molto tempo per esprimersi.

Very delicious wine. We had this with chicken, and it was fabulous. I usually prefer food with my wine, but this one is fabulous just to drink on its own.

The Mazzei flag ship Super Tuscan, a blend of 50/50 Merlot and Sangiovese: cherry, leather, plum, tobacco, blackberry, soft vanilla, medium body, light tannins, needs some air, well balanced long finish. Hold for 3+ years.
