For 600 years, the Mazzei family has been synonymous with Tuscan wine.  The estate is still family-owned to this day with the 26th generation continuing to make benchmark Italian wines. They've acquired some of the best vineyard land in the area and were amongst the first to plant Bordeaux varietals in Tuscany.   A true master is at the helm with consulting oenologist Carlo Ferrini helping to produce their wines.  This Super Tuscan is dedicated to their most notable ancestor, Philip Mazzei, who was a close friend of Thomas Jefferson.  The two men pioneered viticulture in Virginia, with the president’s vineyards at Monticello serving as the model for others in the state.  The 2019 Mazzei Philip Toscana IGT is an unforgettable Super Tuscan deal for Napa lovers and fans of Old World wines.  It's plush, elegant, complex and balanced with rich texture and ripe fruit.  It's creamy and delectable with polished tannins and finesse.  This Cabernet has notes of succulent red cherry, blackberry, plum, spice, cinnamon, bittersweet chocolate and leather.  It's full bodied, silky and supple with a fresh, long finish.  Enjoy!

Wine Advocate, 94 Points 

“This wine is a symbolic bridge from the Old World to the New. The Mazzei 2019 Philip is an all-Tuscan expression of Cabernet Sauvignon that delivers rich texture, ripeness and ripe fruit. The wine is named after Philip Mazzei (1730–1816), who was a contemporary of Thomas Jefferson. The two men reportedly exchanged winemaking tips and vineyard techniques. The 2019 vintage nails that proverbial sweet spot between softness, structure, fruit and spice. This is a plush, fruit-forward and balanced Tuscan red. Drink 2022-2038.” 

James Suckling, 94 Points 

“Very tight and firm with polished tannins that are poised and creamy-textured. The fruit shows plenty of blackberry and raspberry character. Lightly chewy finish. Better after 2024, when it will have opened up.” 

Vinous, 92 Points 

"The 2019 Philip is soft, voluptuous and quite caressing in its contours.  In 2019, varietal Cabernet flavors aren’t quite as developed as they can be, and yet the Philip is an undeniably attractive wine to enjoy for its racy, forward personality.  Succulent red cherry, plum, spice and leather build into the supple finish." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Philip is a quintessentially Tuscan wine. It brings together the fragrance and elegance of wines produced in the famous area of Chianti Classico with the opulence and power of wines from the more recently discovered Maremma region. The combination of Cabernet Sauvignon from two different Tuscan estates creates aromatic complexity, depth of color and powerful structure while simultaneously lending minerality, elegance and finesse to the wine. Philip is complex and exotic with waves of bittersweet chocolate, spices, cinnamon, clove and mint, mingled in a delectable dance of flavors. Rich and opulent yet supple and silky, it is full bodied with polished tannins and a fresh, long finish. Tuscan estates creates aromatic complexity, depth of color and powerful structure while simultaneously lending minerality, elegance and finesse to the wine."
