Badilante IGT Sangiovese Brilliant ruby red, bouquet characterized by fruity aromas that integrate with spicy perceptions. On the palate it shows medium structure, elegance and roundness conferred by the docility of the tannins. The objective set for this wine is finalized in the creation of a drink endowed with great versatility able to accompany many of the dishes of the Tuscan tradition. The shovelers were those who for over a century tilled the virgin lands of the Maremma. Our Sangiovese is born today from the same areas, elegant and generous, a timeless classic.
Intense ruby red to the eye. It offers hints of black cherry, blackberry and ripe dark pulp fruit on the nose, enriched with mineral and spicy tones. In tasting the tannins are still very gritty, and communicate that they are ready to support the wine at least until the next decade. Excellent persistence and fruity closure. It goes perfectly with land cuisine, and with second courses in particular. Try it with stuffed honey duck.
