The Rosso di Montalcino of Fattoria dei Barbi was born in vineyards located between the rolling hills of Montalcino and Scansano, in the heart of Tuscany.
It is produced exclusively with Sangiovese grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. After destemming, the grapes ferment at a controlled temperature of 27-28°C for about 12-13 days. Subsequently the wine ages partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in oak barrels for 6 months before being bottled.
It is characterized by a lively ruby red colour. The nose opens with an intense bouquet, with hints of cherries and red fruits. On the palate it has a pleasant acid grit and pleasantly sweet tannins.
Perfect to accompany white meats and roasts, it is ideal in combination with aged cheeses.
