Folonari was founded in 1825 by Francesco Folonari. The company and vineyards first grew in Valmonica in the Veneto region of Italy. In the later half of the 19th Century, Francesco and his sons moved to Brescia in the verdant alpine foothills between Lake Iseo and Lake Garda, establishing one of Italy�s finest winemaking facilities. From the very beginning, the founders wanted to create wines that are accessible for everyday occasions. Careful grape selection from the best vineyards, combined with the best vinification techniques, produce wines of exceptional quality. From their award-winning Chianti to their exemplary Pinot Grigio, Folonari brings you "The Passion of Italy in Every Bottle."
