Brunello

Fattoria dei Barbi (Colombini)

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2012

Well structured and balanced, it displays an iconic ruby/garnet appearance, followed by secondary and tertiary aromas and flavors of woodland herbs, dried fruits and nuts, plus flavorsome balsamic nuances, and interesting red fruit undertones.

Overall, quite elegant and refined; medium bodied, with ample acidity, dusty tannins and a long, satisfying finish. If you’ve got it, now is the time.

Fanti

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2019

2019 opened May 2025. Freshly tan leather on the nose. Black cherries on the front. Medium tannic structure. Nice mix of mineral high notes and dark chocolate low notes on the mid palate and the back palate. Short finish. Adequate, but this is probably the best you can get in the $50 price range in the US. — 4 days ago
