The Italian wine producer Mazzei has vineyards in Tuscany, in the Maremma coastal region and in Chianti. They also have since some time back vineyards in Sicily. Francesco Mazzei was in Stockholm to present their wines. BKWine’s Anette Zellen Soderstrom met him at the Museum of Modern Art.
The house of Mazzei are heroes. Oh yes, I was told at the table that when the house of Ricasoli wanted to buy back their vineyards / the right to the name they were helped by the Mazzei family.
It was sometime in the early 90’s that the world’s oldest winery regretted the sale that happened a few decades earlier. The families are friends for centuries, and also shared bloodline, and as I understand even exchange a lot of wine experiences and experimentations.
Francesco Mazzei talks proudly about his family. His ancestor Ser Lapo Mazzei started already in the late 1300s. 24 generations later he tells the story of how history has turned them into one of Italy’s most modern wineries.
