Wine description

This bottle Magnum 1,5 iters and is sold in screen-printed Wooden Box.

 

This one is our most important red wine, produced since more than 100 years. In the winery of Barbi farm you can admire a collection of thousands bottles of Brunello, starting from the harvest 1892. Its fermentation in steel containers lasts about 14 days at 28°C, followed by two years aging in Slavonia barrels and a further maturation in bottle of 4 months. It is composed 100% by Sangiovese. During the wine-making, the soft pressed grapes are cooled at 16°C in a space without CO2. This cooling-process is useful to extract from the peels polyphenols and anthocyanins. The classic alcoholic fermentation follows with its 16/17 days at a controlled temperature of 27°C. After the malolactic fermentation the product is introduced in little containers (2.25-15 hl) and then poured in bigger ones. The prestigious Brunello rests in barrels for at least two years and ages in the bottle for minimum 4 months.
