The Fattoria dei Barbi today is owned by Stefano Cinelli Colombini, who continues a story that sees the Colombinis linked to these lands for more than six centuries; a very long time in which the family has always defended the traditions and values of the Montalcinese culture, whose last and most precious fruit is Brunello.

| Story | Dry red wine, from 100% Sangiovese grapes, from our vineyards in Montalcino. Brunello is the 'flagship' of the Fattoria dei Barbi, produced since 1892 and has won accolades and awards worldwide for over a century. |
| Origin | Montalcino (Siena) |
| Wine making | The destemmed grapes underwent a sudden drop in temperature to 16Ā°C in a CO2-protected environment. This cooling process of the grape skin allows for a higher extraction of the anthocyanin and polyphenol content. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in steel tanks for 16 7 days at a controlled temperature of 27-28Ā°C without exceeding 28Ā°C. After racking, malolactic fermentation takes place. |
| Aging | For at least 2 years in small, medium and large capacity barrels, bottle-ageing for at least 4 months. |
| Total acidity | 5.22 gr/L |
| Residual sugar | 1.32 gr/L |
| Dry extract | 29.52 gr/L |
| Allergens | Contains sulphites |
