Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Vigna del Fiore 2017 Fattoria dei Barbi

The Brunello di Montalcino Vigna del fiore by Fattoria dei Barbi is produced from grapes from the vineyard of the same name, a single plot of 5.7 hectares. It is the southernmost vineyard of the whole company and one of the oldest.

The bunches were carefully selected, then passed through the crusher-destemmer and, if necessary, cryomacerated. The vinification lasts 16-19 days and takes place at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, the wine ages in small and medium-capacity barrels for at least 2 years with subsequent passage into larger-capacity barrels and a minimum of 4 months in the bottle.

Brilliant ruby red colour. The nose reveals a bouquet with aromas of red rose, ripe strawberry, bay leaf and dark chocolate. On the palate it is opulent, with a good structure and a persistent finish.

It goes very well with mixed roasts, stewed meats, game dishes and aged cheeses.
