Siepi 2019

Mazzei

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 98.0

Siepi, owned by Mazzei family since 1435, has always been a model vineyard, still managed today with the same kind of respect. Castello di Fonterutoli saw its unique location and special microclimate and had the foresight in the early 1980s to plant Merlot as the ideal grape to complement Sangiovese in a very particular “terroir”, which produces a wine which is perfectly balanced between elegance, power and complexity.

Monumentally built, crispy notes of elder, plum, berries, sandalwood, tobacco, with a very long, bright finish. 50% Merlot, 50% Sangiovese.

Dark crimson and sweet with Merlot a bit more obvious than the Sangiovese. A little stringy on the end. And then some sweetness and heat.

This is a really racy and fine Siepi with currant, black-cherry and dark-chocolate character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with very long, intense tannins that are linear and fine-textured. Really builds on the palate. Super structure. Finesse with power. Try after 2024 and onwards.
