    With this exceptional Chianti Classico Riserva, the Mazzei family celebrates their famous ancestor Ser Lapo, in whose writings the name "Chianti" is mentioned for the first time. The upper part of the label features a faithful reproduction of one of his writings (from 1398) with beautiful calligraphy. "Don't worry about the cost of this wine, even though it was expensive: its quality will make up for it."

    Opens with classic aromas of blackberry, cassis and a fine hint of violet. Warm and full on the palate, a firm core of dark, sweet fruit, smooth tannins, rich and with elegant acidity. Spicy and long, with an unmistakable appetising hint of sage and mint on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright ruby red with a subtly brightening rim. Medium expression on the nose, subtle earthy tones, with ripe, shy, cherry fruit. A little wild on the palate, with a slightly animal touch, plenty of tannins and a fine mint flavour, not yet fully integrated, be patient!" Falstaff

    "The Chianti Classico Riserva Ser Lapo 2021 is a complex, beguiling wine. It presents a distinctly aromatic, flavourful expression of Sangiovese. Cedar wood, pipe tobacco, crushed autumn leaves and wild red cherries race across the palate, all framed by a lively salty undertone. Once again, Ser Lapo is one of the undiscovered jewels in the Mazzei range." Vinous
