This is a very pretty, with currant, cherry and some mahogany and cigar-box character. It’s medium-to full-bodied with tight, linear tannins that are long and very intense. Polished nicely.

Aromas of golden apples, apricots, cream, salted caramel and hazelnuts. It’s medium-bodied with a creamy, buttery texture and fresh acidity. Praline and vanilla notes on the flavorful, rounded finish.

Sangiovese & Cabernet Sauvignon Toscana I.G.T. 2019

From the Folonari family, the Tenute del Cabreo 2019 Sangiovese Cabernet Sauvignon BST shows distinctive characteristics of both grapes used in the blend, with the fresh cherry flavors of the Italian grape contrasted against some of the earthy and spicy tones of the French variety. Those earthy tones veer toward terracotta and baked clay, and the tannins offer a fine, almost dusty quality. The wine shows a generous, medium build with lots of fresh dark fruit on the finish.

From the estates of Ambrogio & Giovanni Folonari (with properties across Tuscany), the Tenute del Cabreo 2017 Il Borgo is a blend of mostly Sangiovese with a smaller part Cabernet Sauvignon. This is an oak-heavy wine with a robust texture that is woven tight with blackberry, spice, leather and tarry smoke. There is some sweet spice and cinnamon on the close, and the wine offers textured, open-knit tannins.

The Tenute del Cabreo 2018 Chardonnay La Pietra is a rich and shapely white wine with tropical tones, stone fruit, honey, ripe melon and Golden Delicious apple. This is a soft, mid-weight wine that shows pretty silkiness and long, fruit-driven flavors framed by some light spice, smoke and toasted almond.
