Trying to find a winery
Going to italy next month for several weeks A friend recommended we visit a of winery by the name of MAZZIE (sp?) but I can't find it. Can someone help? Thanks
|
Is it in the Veneto?
|
Well known producer in the Veneto:
www.masi.it Not as well known: www.robertomazzi.it That's all I got. |
You might also be thinking Renzo Masi located in Rufino outside of Florence.
Great wines, and they are presently building a large tasting center in the hills of their vineyards. Lisa S |
I'm pretty sure it is outside Florence- thanks for helping me locate.

It is Mazzei...they made our favorite chianti...a '97 Fonterutolo reserve.
It is in the small, pretty village of Fonterutoli. We were there a couple of years ago and were disappointed to find that the winery was not open at the time we were there. Their website should answer most of your questions. http://www.fonterutoli.it/default_eng.htm |
Although it sounds like Mazzei might indeed be what you are seeking, another well-known winery that gets a lot of favorable attnetion here is (Rocca delle) <b>Macie</b> (probaby not what your friend meant if you;re sure it was a "Z" sound, rather than a "chee" sound). Search "macie" here or take a look at roccadellemacie.com - - you'll find many very positive comments.
Best wishes, Rex |
If you can make it to Rocca delle Macie, definitely do!! Wonderful wines and their restaurant Fizzano is to die for (need reservations). We've stayed in their apartments a couple times, wonderful location, with pool too.
