Descrizione

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2020 from Tenuta la Fuga - Folonari presents a composed, measured personality, the product of careful winemaking. Deep ruby in color with garnet highlights, it offers an aromatic profile that balances ripe fruit notes with spicy accents and subtle balsamic hints, maintaining a sober and pleasant tone.

On the palate it shows structure and tension: tannins are present but well integrated, supporting a generous body and a persistent finish. Notes of red fruit and a slight earthy touch emerge on the sip; the balance invites slow tasting. It is advisable to open the bottle in advance and serve it at a temperature slightly cooler than room temperature. It pairs well with meat dishes, game and aged cheeses, as well as traditional recipes that call for a wine with character.

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.
