Fattoria dei Barbi Brunello di Montalcino has been produced for more than a century. 100% Sangiovese grapes, harvested, on average, in the second half of September from vineyards located in the municipality of Montalcino. The grapes are crushed and destemmed and subjected to a sudden drop in temperature in order to optimise polyphenol extraction. It undergoes alcoholic and malolactic fermentation before being placed in wooden barrels of varying sizes for a period of no less than 2 years. This is followed by 4 months of bottle ageing before release.

Maturation: At least 2 years of maturation between barriques and barrels.

Tasting notes: Luminous garnet red colour. Refined olfactory scenario, modulated with aromas of potpourri, cinnamon, mugwort, plum, cinchona and an echo of carcadè to define the contours. The taste is fleshy and stimulating, with well-balanced tannins and overall elegant harmony, culminating in a lovely finish of rhubarb and citrus.
