Drink now or cellar for up to 15 years, additional aging will benefit this wine. Decant before drinking.

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany’s Chianti Classico zone, just north of the village of Greve, the farm of Tenute di Nozzole dates back as far as 1300 and includes a total of 385 hectares, 90 of which have been planted to vineyards and 15 to olive groves. The estate was acquired by the Folonari family in 1971 and has stayed in the family since. With a strong focus on quality production over quantity, the wines of Tenute di Nozzole showcase elegance and character that represent the terroir they come from.

Sitting at 350 meters in elevation, the 10-acre Il Pareto vineyard rests on clay soil with lime and marble-sized stones. Featuring galestro, a soil type described as rocky, schistous clay which is found in most of Tuscany's best vineyards, the Il Pareto vineyard is ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon. The Il Pareto vineyard is harvested by hand, and grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in Allier oak barriques for 24 months and further bottle-aged for a minimum of six months.

The Toscana Il Pareto has been awarded 95 points by James Suckling. Composed of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is bold, full-bodied and brings forth an exquisite intensity on the palate. Black fruit leads the way here, with notes of earth, mocha and baking spice. The tannins are firm yet inviting with nice acidity to round out the high alcohol and depthness. Pair with hearty meat dishes, cured meats, tomato-based pasta, and portobello mushroom.
