Description

The typical characteristics of Brunello are the great intensity of body and colour, complex and evolved aromas, and the capacity for long ageing. In the Riserva, these qualities can express themselves to the full. This wine is the result of a careful selection process that begins with the harvest, continues in the cellar with longer barrel ageing compared to the Brunello vintage, and ends with more extended bottle ageing before release for sale.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1892
  • Oenologist: Maurizio Castelli
  • Bottles produced: 600.000
  • Hectares: 66
The Colombini family has owned land in Montalcino since 1352, and the Fattoria dei Barbi since the end of the 18th century. The property extends over 350 hectares of fields and vineyards in southern Tuscany, in Montalcino, Scansano and in Chianti. We have been producing Brunello since 1892 and were the first to export it to Europe, America and Asia. Since the 19th century, our wines have won prizes all over the world, and our blue label has always been the best known Brunello.

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.

Wine making The destemmed grapes underwent a sudden drop in temperature to 16°C in a CO2-protected environment. Cooling the grape skins resulted in a higher extraction of the anthocyanin and polyphenol content. Normal alcoholic fermentation lasted for approximately 16 7 days at a controlled temperature of 27-28°C. Racking was followed by malolactic fermentation.
