Selvante Toscana IGT from Folonari presents itself as a red wine with an immediate personality, packaged in a gift box suitable as a present or for the everyday table. Medium ruby in color, it offers aromatic profiles of ripe fruit, with notes of cherry and small red berries and subtle spicy hints. On the palate it shows a balanced structure, soft tannins and a freshness that eases drinkability, making it suitable for relatively immediate consumption but capable of accompanying heartier dishes.

Ideal with grilled meats, meat-based sauces and medium-aged cheeses, it also suits stuffed pasta and homestyle dishes. Serve at around 16–18 °C, opening it a few minutes beforehand to better appreciate the aromas. The gift box aids storage and presentation; a practical choice for those seeking an easy-drinking Tuscan red without pretension, from the well-known producer Folonari.

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.
