Dark fruit (cherry, wild berries), chocolate, herbal notes. Lots of spice (leather, tobacco) and an elegant tannin structure and fine acidity for freshness - Philip von Mazzei, dedicated to the great liberal ancestor and friend of Thomas Jefferson, is a Cabernet Sauvignon straight out of a picture book. There is no lack of ambition and tradition at Mazzei, as the self-confident motto "State of the art since 1435? proves. And rightly so, because the Philip, which offers an enormous price/enjoyment ratio, is a wine that producers can be proud of. Grown on limestone and sandstone at an altitude of up to 300 meters, hand-picked and matured in French and American barriques (30% new), it offers impressive Cabernet enjoyment for its price.

The Marchesi Mazzei are one of the most important winegrowing families in Tuscany, Italy and indeed the entire wine world. Hardly any other dynasty has been producing wines without interruption for almost 600 years. The family has been closely associated with Tuscany since the 11th century. Ser Lapo Mazzei, who first wrote about Chianti as a wine-growing region in 1398, is famous.
