Winemaker Notes

Cabreo Il Borgo debuted in 1985 with its 1982 vintage. Just above Greve in the Chianti region, the Cabreo holdings include 124 acres planted to Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon grown to produce Il Borgo. Chianti’s famed stony soils at 984 feet elevation are ideal for making wines with great aging potential. The word borgo refers to a small village, Montefioralle, that overlooks the vineyards.

The 2021 wine harvest in Tuscany was characterized by a dry and warm growing season, leading to lower yields but excellent grape concentration. Despite a summer drought, cooler nights helped preserve acidity, resulting in well-balanced wines with great aging potential. Winemakers praised the vintage for its structured tannins, deep flavors, and overall high quality, making it a standout year for Tuscan wines.

 

James Suckling 93

A spiced and savory red with chalky tannins and vibrant fruit character. Smooth and dusty on the dry, medium-bodied palate, with red berry, citrus peel and dried herb nuances. I like the zesty and minerally complexity. Good tension and length. Drink or hold.
