Mazzei 'Philip' Rosso Toscana IGT 2014 Review
All kinds of cool stuff here. The dude, Philip, the wine is named after was Thomas Jefferson’s winemaker, so that’s awesome. And Cabernet Sauvignon is what good ol’ Philip Mazzei was charged with making. For an Italian Cab it's soft and deep, with good dark fruit and a nice, firm tannic grip. This would jive with some steak or even a big pile of pasta with red sauce and some bolognese. OH!
