Santa Cristina Cabernet Sauvignon Toscana 2021

On the nose, dried cranberry, hibiscus and blackberry tea work symbiotically with more savory undertones. Blackberry tea headlines the palate, but the earthiness lingers, while vanilla and chocolate underline the sweetness. Round tannins and buzzing acidity keep the lush palate from becoming languid, making this wine a great deal overall.

The Antinori family has been involved in the production of wine for over six centuries, ever since, in 1385, Giovanni di Piero Antinori entered as a member, the “Arte Fiorentina”, the Winemakers’ Guild of the city of Florence. During this entire long period, thorough twenty six generations, the family has always directly managed this work with courageous and, at times, innovative decisions, but always maintaining, unaltered, a fundamental respect for tradition and for the territory in which they have operated.

Today the firm is run by Marquis Piero Antinori with the support of his three daugthers, Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia, directly involved in the work of the house. Tradition, passion, and intuition have been the three driving principles which have led the Marquis Antinori firm to become a leader in Italian wine.
