Fattoria dei Barbi Rosso di Montalcino 2024

Fattoria dei Barbi Rosso di Montalcino 2024 is a polished expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most respected names. Sourced from the historic Montalcino area, it offers the kind of bright, elegant character that has made this appellation a benchmark for lovers of Italian red wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a vivid ruby-red colour with youthful brightness. The nose is lifted and inviting, with red cherry, wild berry, violet, and subtle herbal notes, often accompanied by a gentle earthy or spice-toned edge. The palate is medium-bodied and fresh, with lively acidity, fine tannins, and a clean, fruit-driven profile that reflects Sangiovese’s natural energy. Expect red cherry, plum, dried herbs, and a savoury mineral finish. While enjoyable young, it can gain added complexity over the next few years.

Production
Rosso di Montalcino comes from the Montalcino zone in southern Tuscany, where warm days, cooler nights, and varied hillside soils help Sangiovese retain freshness and aromatic precision. The grapes are typically harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and vinified with care to preserve purity of fruit and the grape’s natural structure, followed by ageing that supports balance without overshadowing the wine’s bright, expressive style.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, grilled meats, mushroom dishes, pasta with tomato-based sauces, and Tuscan-style charcuterie. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 20–30 minutes can help open the aromas, especially if enjoyed young.
