100% Sangiovese from the hills of Montalcino — the "baby Brunello." Sweet cherry, wild flowers and a touch of mint on the finish. Rated 90 points by Antonio Galloni and drinking beautifully.

The producer

Fattoria dei Barbi Montalcino, Italy

The Colombini have been one of Siena's noble families since the 11th century, and present in Montalcino since 1352. Today Stefano Cinelli Colombini runs the family estate, heir to a line that helped invent Brunello itself.

Barbi was a pioneer: among the first to export bottled Tuscan wine to France, the first to sell Brunello by mail order, the first to reach America (1962), England (1969) and Japan (1975), and the creator of one of the first 'Super Tuscans', Brusco dei Barbi (1969).
