Named after the historic Medici property known as "Barco Reale" - meaning Royal Property - which was established in 1626. Today Sangiovese, Cabernet and Canaiolo grow in this ancient area that was a hunting preserve surrounded by walls over 30 miles long. Barco Reale is a younger version of Carmignano that received DOC status in 1994.

Purplish dark and deep red with ruby red shades. On the nose, sweet, elegant, and fruity with notes of black cherry, raspberry, licorice, and a light toast. Medium to full-bodied wine with present tannins that coat your mouth and result in a slight puckering.
