Tosco's word

Les deux Brunello affichent exactement la même note de 8,0, avec des critères quasi identiques sur la typicité, la reconnaissance et le rapport qualité-prix. La différence se joue sur le prix et le millésime : l'Antinori à 54 €, en 2019, convient à un budget plus serré, tandis que la Fattoria dei Barbi, à 63 €, séduit ceux qui privilégient un élevage plus long et précis, avec deux ans en bois clairement annoncés. Pour un repas en petit comité ou une première découverte, choisis l'Antinori ; pour une occasion spéciale ou un amateur exigeant, la Barbi justifie son écart.
