Marchesi Mazzei Concerto

I tasted this 80-20 blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon as a barrel sample. The Mazzei 2018 Concerto di Fonterutoli offers an authentic Tuscan character with the robust personality and fruit weight to pair with a classic T-bone bistecca alla Fiorentina. Concerto is fleshy and succulent with black cherry, plum, cardamom spice, and grilled rosemary. The wine's robust black fruit profile makes it an ideal companion to meats on the grill. The tannins are evident, but they also show elegant restraint so as not to overpower the flavors of your dish.
