2016 Salicutti Brunello di Montalcino Teatro DOCG

(96+ Points) The Salicutti 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Teatro (with just 1,760 bottles made) is the protagonist in this set of new releases from one of the dreamiest estates in Tuscany. If I were to move to Montalcino, I'd want to live here in this beautiful country house on a hill facing the sunset. Felix and Sabine Eichbauer own a true gem, and the magic of place is transmitted through this bottle. There is a width and textural depth to this wine that you don't get in the other two. Teatro also offers a wide panorama of Sangiovese aromas from wild cherry to blue flower to crushed limestone. The Vigneto del Teatro is less than a hectare in size and at a high 470 meters above sea level (with the best views of that sunset I dream about). Wine Advocate
