For 26 generations, the Mazzei family has been producing wine off their historic Castello di Fonterutoli estate. They are very intimately tied up in the entire foundation of Tuscan winemaking. After all, it was their name that was found on the first-ever official document mentioning Chianti–all the way back in 1398!
The last time I got this special wine was back in the 2017 vintage. The offer went nuts, yet my attempts to secure another in the last few years have come up short. But in a hot 2020 vintage, this wine is totally singing in its youth, and I took every bottle offered to me.
This comes from a high-elevation vineyard within the heart of Chianti Classico. It’s a Sangiovese-dominant blend that earned 92 points from James Suckling, who called it “medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit.” It’s a deep, dark, luscious blend with intense aromas and a smooth chocolate finish that seals the deal.

Plenty of berry and crushed-stone character with hints of chocolate and nutmeg. It’s medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit and a lightly herbal undertone. Spicy at the end. Sangiovese and merlot. Drink in a year or two, but already attractive.

It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!

“The 2018 Palmer is a legend in the making…This audacious Palmer was still revving its engines 48 hours after opening. There will never be another Palmer like this, sui generis. It was a massive risk. But by throwing caution to the wind, something extraordinary was born.” -100 points, Vinous
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
