Descrizione

Cabreo Il Borgo Toscana IGT 2020 presents itself as a red wine of good structure and character, part of the Tenute del Cabreo line and offered by Folonari. Deep ruby in color, it offers a straightforward bouquet recalling ripe red fruits and spicy hints, with a balance between freshness and well-integrated tannins. On the palate it shows body and persistence, with consistent aromatic returns and a harmonious gustatory texture that invites drinking.

Ideal to accompany medium- to full-bodied dishes, such as meat courses or aged cheeses, it also suits convivial occasions. It is presented in Imperial format (1.5 L) and packaged in a wooden case, a practical solution for those seeking an impressive bottle or a gift. Serving temperature around 16–18 °C; decant if desired to enhance expressiveness. Indications are based on available information: Toscana IGT, vintage 2020, Tenute del Cabreo; no further technical details have been added.

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.
