A fluctuating climatic condition in April and May gave way to an higher than usual temperature from June until mid August, with very little rains. In the second half of August providential regular rains restored the ideal conditions for the vine\u2019s growth. In September, the temperatures kept mild during day light and fresh at night time. The regular and steady maturation of the grapes allowed a perfect balance between sugar and acidity. Vinification <\/strong>Before the fermentation the grapes were subjected to a cold pre-fermentative maceration which consists in cooling the grapes at a temperature of 16\u00b0C in an environment protected by CO2. This process increases the extraction of polyphenols and aroma compounds. The regular alcoholic fermentation followed and lasted 16\/17 days at a controlled temperature of 27\u00b0-28\u00b0C. After the racking and the malolactic fermentation the wine aged in small-medium size oak barrels (2,25 \u2013 15 hl) for the first months. Later it completed the aging in larger oak barrels, for a total period of two years and then is bottled at least 4 months before the release.<\/p>\r\n Chemical Analysis <\/strong>Alcohol<\/em> 14,88 % \u2013 Tot.

This is a medium-weight expression that offers the carefully measured acidity and structured to ensure a healthy aging future ahead. Speaking of aging, Brunello is released five years after harvest and tertiary notes defined by cellar age are always an important characteristics of the wine. I notice that this Brunello has embraced its age with particular grace and elegance. You could want age it longer or you could also enjoy this bottle in the near and medium term. Some 6,600 bottles were released in January 2020.

Deep aromas of blackberry, raspberry and tea leaf. Juicy and intense, but extremely tight; quite closed currently, with aeration bringing up only very faint red and dark berry and flinty herb flavors that\u00a0remain completely compressed by the strong tannic cloak. Finishes with mouthcoating astringency that had me scrambling for bread. Completely charmless right now, this very young, taut wine needs many years of patience; my\u00a0hope is the tannins resolve before the fruit disappears.

\r\nThe Vigna del Fiore is an unique vineyard: its 14 acres (5.7 hectares) are situated in an area where the vine is cultivated by our family since the XVI century. It is one of the southernmost and oldest vineyard in the whole area of the Brunello di Montalcino. The particular exposition and the composition of the soil give to this Brunello special qualities, with a very elegant bouquet and an harmonic and complex taste.
The Brunello Vigna del Fiore has been produced since 1981; for its harmony and charm it can be drunk and appreciated from the earlier years in bottle, despite being a wine with an excellent capacity of ageing.<\/em><\/h3>\r\n
The harvest took place from September 28th and October 7th.<\/em><\/p>\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.fattoriadeibarbi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/RP5b.png\")
