| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nVivid ruby-red color with aromas of red berries, red currants, cherries and notes of eucalyptus. The palate is fresh with soft tannins, medium body, bright acidity and a long finish with slight menthol notes. Reveals depth and complexity from the get-go, featuring cherry, strawberry, leather and mineral flavors. Light on its feet and firm, finishing on the austere side. Offers the potential for short-term aging. Drink now through 2022.\r\nFood Pairing -\u00a0 roasted and grilled meat (both beef and white meat), cheeses and casserole dishes.\r\nWine Spectator 90 Points\r\nAbout Fattoria dei Barbi\r\nFattoria dei Barbi is among a prestigious group of estates that has played an integral part in writing the history of Italian wine. In fact, the estate is one of only five in Montalcino that have continuously operated for over 100 years. The Colombini family, one of region\u2019s most influential families, founded the estate in 1790. The family has owned land in Montalcino since 1352, first building the \u201cPoggio alle Mura\u201d estate (now Castello Banfi), then \u201cArgiano\u201d, and finally they began assembling \u201cFattoria dei Barbi\u201d in 1790, where they have produced wine ever since. The estate is currently owned and managed by the 20th generation heir, Stefano Cinelli Colombini, who carries on constantly seeking innovation through research and the application of new techniques. |
