About The Wine

Tenuta di Nozzole has been on the map since 1300, when it belonged to the Florentine Strozzi family. In 1971 the Folonari family — wine producers for over two centuries — bought the estate and turned it into one of Chianti Classico's most reliable sources of terroir-driven Sangiovese. Today the farm spans 385 hectares in Greve in Chianti, with 90 devoted to vineyards and 15 to olive groves.

Il Pareto is the estate's Cabernet Sauvignon statement — 100% varietal, grown in the hills above Greve where international varieties have thrived alongside Sangiovese since the Super Tuscan revolution. This is Tuscany's answer to Napa: structured, cellar-worthy Cabernet with the Old World restraint that keeps it food-friendly and alive in the glass.

The 2021 vintage delivered optimal ripeness without over-extraction. In the glass, you get dark fruit and oak influence with a structured character that shows both power and refinement. James Suckling scored it 94 points.

CRITIC REVIEWS

What the Critics Said

Deep, dark ruby red. An intense bouquet of black currant, cocoa, and a hint of pepper, underpinned by elegant wood. Round and smooth, it builds with gentle intensity, rich in fruit on a bed of silky tannins, leading to a very long finish of dark chocolate—already magnificent. ~ 97 Falstaff

Deep and brooding, with aromas of baked cherries, plums, dark chocolate and licorice. The palate is broad and succulent, offering a full body and a plush, velvety texture. Polished and well-integrated overall. Drink or hold. ~94 James Suckling

THE PRODUCER

Tenuta di Nozzole

Tenuta di Nozzole is a historic Tuscan estate in the hills of Greve in Chianti, with roots dating back to the 1300s and a modern chapter that began when the Folonari family acquired it in 1971. Across its 385 hectares, Sangiovese is the star, producing Chianti Classico wines that balance the power of Greve’s clay and marl soils with the elegance of traditional Tuscan winemaking. The estate also produces Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, including the Super Tuscan Il Pareto, while its historic cellar holds more than 25,000 bottles of older Folonari vintages.
