Villa Barbi Rosso is crafted by Decugnano dei Barbi, a renowned winery in the heart of Umbria, Italy. This wine is a blend of Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, each contributing to its complex character. The grapes are sourced from the unique terroir of Umbria, characterized by its clay and limestone soils, providing a distinct mineral edge to the wine. Traditional fermentation in stainless steel is followed by aging in a combination of stainless steel and oak, imparting a balance of fresh fruit flavors with a hint of oak-induced complexity. The wine has received praise for its vibrant expression of fruit alongside more subtle earthy and spicy undertones, making it a favorite amongst enthusiasts looking for a taste of Italian craftsmanship.
