About this winery:
In Tuscany, Fattoria dei Barbi and its owner the Colombini family built the reputation of Brunello di Montalcino as a wine of great quality and international recognition. Fattoria dei Barbi is one of the original producers of Brunello di Montalcino with bottles dating back to the 1892 vintage in its cellar. The Colombini family founded the estate in 1790 and has owned land in Montalcino since 1352. The estate, whose name is derived from “Barbo”, a reference to the seashell fossils found throughout the vineyards, received top awards at exhibitions all over Europe since the first vintages.
