Tenute del Cabreo Il Borgo 1997 is a flagship wine from Tenute del Cabreo, part of the prestigious Folonari family’s wine estates in Tuscany. Established in the 1980s by Ambrogio and Giovanni Folonari, the estate focuses on producing high-quality wines that reflect the elegance and depth of Tuscany’s terroir. With a meticulous approach to both vineyard management and winemaking, the Folonari family has become synonymous with excellence in the region.

Located in the heart of Tuscany, specifically in the hills of Greve in Chianti, Tenute del Cabreo benefits from the region's rolling landscapes and optimal growing conditions. The vineyards are planted on well-drained, mineral-rich soils composed of clay and limestone, which enhance the complexity of the grapes. The warm days and cool nights create a perfect balance for ripening, maintaining both structure and freshness in the wine.

Il Borgo 1997 is a Super Tuscan blend, primarily composed of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is deeply concentrated, showcasing aromas of black cherry, cassis, tobacco, and a hint of leather. On the palate, it is full-bodied with rich tannins and a long, elegant finish. Aged in French oak barrels, the wine develops layers of spice, vanilla, and oak, adding depth to the vibrant fruit. This vintage, from a renowned year in Tuscany, demonstrates remarkable aging potential while maintaining its complexity and balance.
