La Pietra Chardonnay Toscana IGT 1991 from Tenute del Cabreo - Folonari is a mature white that reflects the natural evolution of time. Presented in a wooden case, the bottle reveals on the nose a composed, mature profile with notes of ripe fruit, light hazelnut hints and a mineral touch that accompanies the olfactory progression. On the palate it shows a soft, well-integrated structure, with restrained acidity and a discreet persistence that highlights the balance typical of wines that have aged for years.

It pairs carefully with savory preparations such as baked fish, well-seasoned white meats and hard cheeses, offering a pleasant contrast between richness and finesse. For storage it is advisable to check the condition of the bottle and the cork, given the wine's age; the wooden case aids presentation and transport. A label suited to those seeking a tasting experience of a mature Chardonnay, appropriate for notable occasions or a private collection.

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.
