Savory from the start, the 2021 Badia a Coltibuono Cultus Sangiovese from Toscana offers peppery dried herbs, forest floor, and cured prosciutto before Bing cherry, barely ripe strawberry, and preserved lemon fill in. Raised in small neutral barrels, it shows a glowing medium ruby-brick core and a light red rim. Smooth tannins and moderate-plus acidity carry the medium body with ease.
