Hawker’s Sloe Gin is the authority in the sloe gin category. William
Hawker created the original recipe in the late 1790’s and the
family business...
Italy - Tuscany - Fattoria dei Barbi
The family Colombini acquired Fattoria dei Barbi in 1790, and from that year on, the members of this family focused their attention on the viticulture and wine production.
In 1892 a Barbi's wine was awarded by the Minister of Agriculture with a silver medal, for the excellence of ots wine production . It was just the first one of a rich series of national and international wine awards.
Today Fattoria dei Barbi is run by Stefano Cinelli Colombini, descendant of the ancient family and thanks to his deep interest for the new technologies, he has helped the progress and the development of his winery.

Grape Varieties: 100% Sangiovese di Toscana. Food Matching Note: Brunello di Montalcino is the King of Tuscan wines. It should accompany strongly flavoured meats and game, it is definetely a wine to be contemplated, and such is the perfect partner to accompany a selection of cheeses at the end of a good meal. Tasting Note: Brick red in colour with earthy brown edges. The nose is pronounced and complex, offering an entertaining array of red and black berry fruits, spices and oaky aromas. The palate is medium to full bodied with a richly complex middle and an everlasting, elegant finish. The tannic structure that dominated the wine in its youth is beginning to mellow and allow mature, secondary characteristics to show. A stunning wine with enormous appeal. |
