Mazzei Castelli di Fonterutoli “Concerto” 2019 is a big and characterful Super Tuscan, where Tuscan tradition meets international class in a particularly harmonious and successful expression. The wine is based on Sangiovese with an uplift of Cabernet Sauvignon, and in the 2019 vintage, it appears both generous, deep, and precisely formed. It is a wine with beautiful ripe fruit, lots of energy, and a style that combines the elegance of the Chianti area with the darker, more structured power that has made Concerto a classic among Tuscany's great wines.

The aroma opens with black cherries, blackberries, and plums, finely layered with rose petals, wild herbs, undergrowth, flint, spices, and a discreet hint of dried tomato, tobacco, and cedar. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and juicy with a silky smooth texture, ripe dark fruit, and a beautiful, vibrant acidity that keeps the whole fresh and lively. The taste develops with nuances of black berries, spice, earthy notes, and a slight mineral depth, while the tannins are polished and well-integrated, making the aftertaste long, warm, nuanced, and very elegant.

This is a wine that pairs excellently with beef, lamb, game, grilled dishes, and braised stews, but it is also very suitable for aged cheeses and Tuscan cuisine with herbs, mushrooms, and rich sauces. Concerto 2019 is an obvious choice for dinners where the wine is meant to play a leading role – a refined and confident Tuscan wine for those who seek both depth, charm, and classic grandeur in the glass.

95 /100

Made with mostly Sangiovese supplemented by the structural heft and texture of Cabernet Sauvignon (that makes up roughly 20% of the blend), this is a profound and important red wine from Tuscany. The Mazzei 2019 Concerto di Fonterutoli is your proverbial steak buddy, or all-round meat wine, with abundant black fruit, spice, tannins and acidity to cut through the fat and the gristle. By a hair, I prefer the depth and intensity of the 2019 vintage compared to the 2018 vintage that I tasted at this same sitting. This wine is slightly more etched and angular, making it a good bet for extra bottle aging. - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate

So much promise on the nose, your mouth starts watering in anticipation even before the vivid fruit hits on the opening beats. This holds the line throughout, delivering classic Sangiovese character of raspberry, fresh cherries, and cut herbs, with concentrated liquorice, tobacco, tar and leather. Sculpted and precise, and that perfect Italian signature where you you just want to grab a bottle and a plate of food to go alongside. So easy to love, and more proof of how enjoyable the 2019 vintage is in this part of the world. 3.5ph, 70% new oak in barrel and cask format, plus four months in concrete tanks before release. A classic vintage also, with the right amount of rain at the right time, everything went right, so a great production year in terms of yield. Gionata Pulignani winemaker, owned by Marchesi Mazzei.

Brilliant dark ruby red. Distinctly leathery and savoury on the nose, of pepper and dark berries, oak, cigar box and blackberry. Elegantly polished on the palate with tight tannins, stretches clearly and richly over the tongue, with drive, finishes heartily and with tension.

Falstaff

95 /100

The nose is a desert gunfight, with whiffs of powder and flint wafting through the wild herbs, before hints of sweet, oven-dried tomato break up the harsher notes. On the palate, smokiness, salinity and herbaceousness continue, with subtle undertones of dark fruits creating an immensely savory, luxurious wine.

About the grape

Red Blend

Red Blend er en moderne og fleksibel rødvinstype, der skabes ved at kombinere to eller flere druesorter for at opnå en vin med større balance, dybde og kompleksitet end én enkelt drue kan levere. Det er en kategori, der spænder bredt, fordi der ikke findes faste regelsæt for druesammensætningen. Netop derfor er Red Blend blevet populær i hele verden, fra Bordeaux‑inspirerede kombinationer til innovative, nytænkende blandinger i USA, Chile, Australien og Italien.

En Red Blend kan udtrykke sig på mange måder, men fælles for de bedste eksempler er, at hver drue bidrager med sit eget særpræg. Cabernet Sauvignon kan give struktur og dybde, Merlot kan tilføre rund frugt og blødhed, Syrah kan bidrage med krydrede og mørke toner, og andre sorter som Grenache, Zinfandel eller Petite Sirah kan tilføre saftighed, farve eller aromatisk løft. Denne fleksibilitet giver vinmagere frihed til at skabe vine med personlighed og harmoni, ofte med fokus på rigdom, moden frugt og generøs smag.

Red Blend er kendt for at have en tilgængelig og imødekommende stil, hvilket gør den velegnet både til nye vinnydere og til dem, der søger en vin med lag af smag og god balance. Den dækker alt fra bløde, frugtdrevne hverdagsvine til komplekse, fadlagrede udgaver, der kan måle sig med berømte regioners traditionelle blends.

Serving

Server ved 16 til 18 grader i store rødvinsglas for at fremhæve både frugt og aromatiske lag. En kort dekantering kan åbne vinens karakter og blødgøre tanninerne.
