Descrizione

The Cabreo Il Borgo Toscana IGT 1993 from Tenute del Cabreo, offered by Folonari, is a vintage red wine presented in a wooden case. In the glass it retains a notable color despite its age; on the nose there are impressions of ripe red fruit, earthy nuances and hints of sweet spices, described cautiously to respect the wine's natural evolution. The olfactory impression suggests a mature but balanced profile, without making definitive judgments about its overall structure.

On the palate it confirms an even structure, with tannins present but not dominant and a body that supports the aromatic elements. The finish is of medium length, allowing pairings with meat dishes, aged cheeses and flavorful preparations without being intrusive. A moderate serving temperature is recommended and the wooden case can be used for storage or presentation; to better assess its development, taste calmly and, if possible, compare bottles from the same vintage.

Winery history

The Folonari family has deep roots in the Brescia area and has been involved in wine production since the late 18th century. At the end of the 19th century the headquarters were moved to Brescia, and in the early 20th century the family acquired the historic Ruffino winery. In the 1960s Nino Folonari began a shift toward quality with the acquisition of estates in Chianti. In 2000 Ambrogio and Giovanni Folonari established Ambrogio e Giovanni Folonari Tenute, which brings together several estates in Tuscany, while the Folonari brand offers an extensive range of table wines and appellation wines.

Production philosophy

Enhance the production areas, combine tradition and innovation, and focus on grape quality to produce wines that are distinctive and closely tied to their territory; the company's plan includes investments in the estates and attention to the diversity of terroirs.

Terroir and vineyards

Headquarters and estates are mainly in Tuscany, with production and a presence also in north-eastern regions such as Veneto and in areas like the Collio; the company’s history begins in the Bresciano and includes references to territories around Lake Garda and beyond.
