The history of the Mazzei family is closely woven into Tuscany’s winemaking history, as well as this venerated region’s political and cultural past. The first recorded mention of the Mazzei family – originally from the winemaking area of Carmignano – was noted in documents traced back to the early 11th century.
Today, after nearly six centuries, the Mazzei family (under the guidance of Lapo Mazzei, who oversees the property with the help of his sons, Filippo and Francesco), remains devoted to winemaking, with an eye towards innovation and an abiding respect for the land. A rich history combined with consistently high quality winemaking over centuries has made the Mazzei family like none other and one of Italy’s most renowned and respected wine producers.
