Fattoria dei Barbi follows traditional winemaking methods, with a long maceration of the skins allowing excellent extraction of colorants and tannins. Subsequently, the wine matures for at least two years in large oak barrels, thereby acquiring notes of vanilla and spices that blend harmoniously with the primary fruit scents.
