Tosco's word

Both Brunellos carry an identical La Toscane Cachée score of 8.0, but Camigliano stands out for its price of €31 versus €36 for Fattoria dei Barbi, and above all for its mentioned organic farming, a criterion that weighs heavily if it matters to you. Fattoria dei Barbi strikes back with greater recognition (3 bicchieri versus 2) and a more recent 2020 vintage. If your budget is tight or organic is a must, choose Camigliano; if you want the richer list of awards and a younger wine, Fattoria dei Barbi remains a safe choice, the €5 price gap justifying the difference.
