Brunello is the “heart” of the Fattoria dei Barbi, produced by us since 1892 and highly decorated on numerous occasions.

Vineyards of the Fattoria dei Barbi located in the Municipality of Montalcino and registered in the production of Brunello di Montalcino. Soil : galestro - alberese. Altitude : from 300 to 500 meters above sea level. Average age of the vines : vines planted from 1975 to 2017. Exposure : South. Training system: Free cordon. Vines per hectare: 5,000. Yield per hectare in quintals : 65.

The Fattoria dei Barbi 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is quite rich and velvety in appearance and in sensation. The wine carries extra fruit weight that is linked to the warm and dry conditions of the vintage, and that richer core is a sounding board for ripe and plummy fruit aromas. I can smell the oak barrels too, and although they don't impart obvious spice or toast, they add soft, earthy contours to this full-bodied Brunello. - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Serve at 18°C. Serve with dishes rich in flavor such as stewed red meats or game, grilled or mixed roasts. Tasty and well seasoned hard cheeses.
