Fattoria Dei Barbi BRUSCO DEI BARBI IGT Tuscany
Description: The Colombini family has had properties in Montalcino since 1352 and has owned the Fattoria dei Barbi since 1790. The vineyards cover an area of 100 hectares, approximately 35% of the whole estate. The exposure is east, south-east and the soil type is composed prevalently of Galestro with small components of mud and clay, only a minor part of it has a relevant presence of eocenic sands. The Sangiovese grapes are de-stemmed but not pressed, and pumped into stainless steel tanks for a prolonged fermentation. The wine is kept on the lees under a carbon dioxide blanket for three months to develop its unique character. It is then pressed and aged for one year in the tank followed by six months bottle conditioning before release. The wine takes its name from the brigand, or highway man, Bruscone , who lived in the Fattoria dei Barbi woods, with production of Brusco starting in the 1970's. Giovanni Colombini who originally produced this wine has created a strong bodied wine with fruity and spicy aromas, good tannic structure and a nice finish. (6 x 75 cl)
