The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino is a delicate and graceful wine. It shows the precision, linearity and power of the vintage for sure, but it also delivers floral tones, bright raspberry, toasted almond and a playful touch of medicinal herb that shape a careful and contemplative bouquet. Those bright aromatic nuances are followed by silky tannins and softly finessed fruit flavors. With an ample 160,000 bottles made, this is a solid go-to Brunello, especially if you are looking for a bottle with a relatively accessible drinking window.

Description

Description

The Colombini family has owned lands in Montalcino since 1352, and the Fattoria dei Barbi since the end of the 18th century. The property extends over 350 hectares of fields and vineyards in southern Tuscany, in Montalcino, Scansano and in Chianti. We have been producing Brunello since 1892 and we were the first to export it to Europe, America and Asia. From the 1800s to today, our wines have won awards all over the world, and our blue label has always been the best-known Brunello. 

The Fattoria dei Barbi today is owned by Stefano Cinelli Colombini, who continues a story that sees the Colombini family linked to these lands for more than six centuries; a very long time in which the family has always defended the traditions and values ​​of the Montalcino culture, whose last and most precious fruit is Brunello.
