Description
In this box with an entirely Tuscan soul, you can find the Brunello di Montalcino from Fattoria dei Barbi, the emblem of the winery and its first distinctive feature. It matures for 2 years in barrels of increasing capacity. In the glass, it shows a bright ruby red color. It has a characteristic spicy aroma of pink pepper that is compared with a rich aromatic range based on aromatic herbs, plum, blueberry and touches of rhubarb. The taste is structured and persistent, with fleshy tannins that are almost chewy, complemented by an adequate freshness. Excellent with stewed red meats or game, it enhances tasty and well-aged hard cheeses.
Chianti is a wine of the Tuscan tradition that the Colombini family has been producing for a century. Montalcino is in fact found in the wider Chianti denomination, however this interpretation expresses an austerity and elegance that bring it back to the most typical style of Montalcino. A young wine but also a classic that shines in the glass with a vivid ruby red. On the nose it is intensely vinous with hints of red berries. The sip is harmonious and dry, savory and slightly tannic. A label to serve in the company of traditional dishes of Tuscan cuisine: from crostini with Colonnata lard, from tripe to Florentine steak.
Finally, Morellino di Scansano is a wine that originates in Maremma, more precisely from the vineyards of the Aquilaia dei Barbi estate, produced mainly with Sangiovese grapes, which locally takes the name of Morellino, and with small additions of Merlot. It is a wine that is modern and captivating while retaining its ancient roots. Ruby with purple hues, it opens on the nose with notes of red fruits and ripe cherry and then develops memories of myrtle and Mediterranean scrub. On the palate it is a warm and savoury wine, with well-integrated tannins and notes of green tobacco in the aftertaste. Ideal to pair with tasty meat dishes, roasts, wild boar "scottiglie" typical of Mediterranean cuisine; it does not disdain fish soups and particularly savoury mature cheeses.
