Wine description

The Fattoria dei Barbi's Brunello di Montalcino is produced since 1892 and was awarded many times for its quality. This wine is the “heart” of the estate production and it is made with 100% Sangiovese grapes from the best vineyards in Montalcino. Perfect for important dishes, roasted or grilled red meats, game, venison, stewed wild boar. Excellent with mature cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Colour: brilliant and intense ruby red. Scent: spicy, hints of pink pepper, wild herbs, plum, blueberry and rhubarb. Taste: soft and balanced with delicate tannins and vibrant acidity, long persistency.

Vinification

Before the fermentation the grapes are subjected to a cold pre-fermentative maceration which consists in cooling the grapes at a temperature of 16° C in an environment protected by CO2. This process increases the extraction of polyphenols and aroma compounds. The regular alcoholic fermentation follows and lasts 16/17 days at a controlled temperature of 27°-28°C.

Ageing

After the racking and the malolactic fermentation the wine ages in small-medium size oak barrels (2,25 – 15 hl) for the first months. Later it completes the aging in larger oak barrels, for a total period of two years and then is bottled at least 4 months before the release.
