Winery Marchesi Mazzei - Castello di Fonterutoli

The Mazzei family has been connected to the village of Fonterutoli since the 15th century: the estate and the family's settlement there are documented from 1435. Over the centuries the family has preserved the village and developed a winemaking activity that blends historical tradition with oenological innovation, highlighting the cru and individual vineyard parcels of the area.

The estate aims to express the characteristics of the terroir through parcel-specific vinifications and attention to the relationship between tradition and innovation. Official communications emphasize the central role of the territory, the care of the vineyards, and an integrated offering of wine, oil and hospitality.

The estate is in the heart of Chianti Classico, in the municipality of Castellina in Chianti. The estate's vineyards are spread across various elevations, between approximately 220 and 570 meters above sea level, on limestone soils and with varied pedoclimatic profiles. The overall property covers hundreds of hectares, with a significant portion devoted to vineyards.
