Description

Italy / Tuscany / Chianti Classico

For 24 generations, the Mazzei family has been producing wines of impressive quality. The family focuses on sustainability through the promotion of biodiversity and the exclusive use of organic fertilizers. Thanks to this environmentally conscious approach, the winery manages to absorb five times more CO2 than it emits and to produce grapes of the highest quality. The soil conditions of the high-altitude vineyards and the microclimate of the sites lend the wines their special elegance, expressive aromas, and exceptional complexity. In our opinion, the Castello vinifies one of the best Chianti Classico Riservas available. The winery has bottled this special edition of Ser Lapo 2019 exclusively for Collectors Wine World.
