The Mazzei Siepi is an elegant expression of Sangiovese and Merlot from Tuscany's Maremma region. This full-bodied red features aromas of wild berries, black pepper, and ripe plum. On the palate, it shows a velvety texture with flavors of black cherry, licorice, and leather. The finish is long and intense, with a lingering hint of dark chocolate. Enjoy this wine with traditional Italian dishes like ossobuco or a hearty beef stew.
