Description
In this box with an entirely Tuscan soul it is possible to find the Brunello di Montalcino of the Fattoria dei Barbi, emblem of the cellar and the first distinctive feature. It ages for 2 years in casks of increasing capacity. In the glass it shows a bright ruby red color. It has a characteristic spicy scent of pink pepper that compares with a rich aromatic range based on aromatic herbs, plum, blueberry and rhubarb touches. The taste is structured and persistent, with fleshy tannins that can be almost chewed integrated with adequate freshness. Excellent to combine with stewed red meats or game, it enhances tasty and well-aged hard cheeses.
Rosso di Montalcino is the younger and disengaged face of his older brother Brunello, more suitable for daily consumption. Resulting from an aging carried out partly in steel tanks and partly in oak barrels, it appears in the glass with a lively ruby red color. The nose tells of intense hints of cherry and red fruits, accompanied by light floral and spicy notes. Pleasant and ready to drink, this Rosso di Montalcino is a medium-bodied wine, rightly tannic, perfect for escorting roasted or grilled meats and medium-aged cheeses.
Rosso dei Barbi is instead the result of experimental cultivation, in which the vineyards were planted with different clones of Sangiovese not registered in the DOCG Brunello di Montalcino. It is a fresh and frank wine, unpretentious, but which expresses in its simplicity all the capacity and style of the cellar. It is a wine that does not see wood, with a bright ruby red color. Hints of cherry stand out on the nose, supported by spicy and floral flashes. The taste is fresh and slightly tannic, pleasantly persistent. Excellent to accompany first courses, as well as pizzas and rustic cakes.
