90% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot
The Mazzei family has a long history dealing with vines and wines. In fact, the name "Ser Lapo" is an homage to their ancestor by that name whose 1398 sales contract serves as the earliest reference to a wine as being from the region of Chianti! Castello di Fonterutoli's Chianti Classico Riserva comes from the mid-altitude slopes along Castellina's western cascade of hills.
Aged 1 year in smaller (225/500L) French oak barrels (half new).
