Brunello di Montalcino DOCG "Vigna del Fiore" 2019 - Fattoria dei Barbi

Brunello di Montalcino from the Vigna del Fiore vineyard of Fattoria dei Barbi. The vineyard is under six hectares and has been cultivated since the 1500s; its stony soil and particular exposure give the wine complexity and elegance. First produced in 1981, it matures in wood for at least two years and refines in bottle for at least four months. It is suited to roasts, stews, grilled meats and fine dining, and can also be enjoyed as a meditation wine after dinner. Garnet red with ruby reflections. The nose shows red fruit, aromatic herbs, cedar and rhubarb, with a spicy trace. The palate is broad and balanced, with tannins balanced by acidity, and the finish is slightly savoury with great persistence.
