BARBI
The estate is located in Baschi in Umbria, close to both the Tuscan and Lazio borders.
Enzo Barbi founded the winery in 1932 and it is still family owned today, run mainly by the industrious Marina Barbi.
The company’s production philosophy leans towards the use of indigenous varietals of central Italy, even though lately, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc have been introduced.
The Barbi whites are “designed” to be consumed fresh, the reds on the other hand are well structured and can handle a good few years.
From a commercial viewpoint, Marina has excellent foresight for emerging markets and changes in drinking trends. The introduction of the “Abboccato” is a perfect example.
