The Tenuta di Nozzole dates back to 1300 and is a historic farm located in the municipality of Greve in Chianti, falling within the famous Chianti Classico appellation, and has always been known for the quality of its wines. The vineyards are located at 300 meters, places where Sangiovese, the most representative vine of Tuscany, is able to give great results. The "La Forra" 2016 is the result of an ancient mass selection of native grapes in a mixed ecosystem of vineyard, olive grove and orchard dating back to the 1950s. The Folonari family elaborates this wine with an alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks and an aging of at least 16 months in French oak barrels. The result is a Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG that best represents the denomination.

In the glass it is distinguished by an intense ruby. On the nose we find rich and persuasive aromas of spirited morello cherry, pulpy and ripe red fruits, well integrated with ethereal and spicy notes. On the palate it is rich, enveloping, velvety, in excellent balance. It closes with a warm finish, where the sensations already felt on the nose are found. A wine that stands up to comparison with important dishes.
