About this Item
Azienda Agricola Roberto Mazzi is a winery located in the Valpolicella region of Italy. The winery produces a range of high-quality wines, including Valpolicella, Amarone della Valpolicella, and Ripasso, which are made from traditional grape varieties such as Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara. The wines produced by Azienda Agricola Roberto Mazzi have received numerous awards and accolades from wine critics and publications, and the winery is considered to be one of the top producers in the Valpolicella region.
"Mazzi's vineyards are located at significant altitudes in the Valpolicella and this factor, along with the limestone-rich soils, tends to give wines of fragrance and finesse rather than sheer muscle power." – Wine Advocate

Critics Ratings
‘Deep ruby. Intense aromas of dark plum, cherry macerated in alcohol, violet, mushroom and mocha. Velvety rich and smooth, with lavish, ripe dark fruit. A full-bodied, high alcohol wine with a heady, tannic, long finish.’ - Ian D’Agata, Vinous, 91/100 (Mar 2006)
