"Vigna del Fiore" is a specific selection that comes from one of the best parcels of vineyard at Fattoria dei Barbi, optimally exposed and hand-picked to ensure the highest quality of Sangiovese grapes. After the harvest, the wine matures for at least two years in large oak barrels, followed by additional months in the bottle to refine its complexity and roundness.

On the palate, it is robust and balanced, with a texture of finely woven tannins that promise excellent longevity. Layers of red fruit, hints of leather, vanilla, and chocolate blend into a long and persistent finish.
Ideal to accompany rich and structured dishes, such as roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses, this wine is a true testament to the aging capacity and quality that Brunello di Montalcino can offer. It is recommended to decant it for several hours to further enhance its complexity.
