Brunello di Montalcino Riserva | Fattoria dei Barbi

About The Producer

The Colombini family acquired Fattoria dei Barbi in 1790 and has owned and managed the estate ever since. Under the direction of Stefano Colombini, who now represents the 20th generation of the family to join the wine business, Fattoria dei Barbi make wines reflecting the traditions and values of Montalcino.

About The Wine

This wine is aged in small-medium size oak barrels (5-20 hl) initially before completing the ageing process in larger oak barrels, for a total period of three years. Fattoria dei Barbi's Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is bottled at least 6 months before release.

Tasting Note

The Riserva explodes with ripe red fruits such as bitter cherry as well as possessing plenty tertiary complexities, notably leather, dry hay and liquorice. On the palate the wine is warm, ample, elegant and savoury showing a well integrated balance of alcohol and acidity. The juicy powerful finish seems endless.
