"This is a pure expression of Cabernet Sauvignon from the wild and intriguing Greve in Chianti subzone to the northern side of the appellation. The 2015 Il Pareto is a profound and succulent expression that benefits from a warm and sunny vintage that was particularly kind to late-ripening varieties such as this. The wine achieves ideal ripeness with abundant tones of dark fruit, mocha and cured tobacco. There are no green notes here. This is a full-bodied red with soft textural richness."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
