    This Wine Is Rated:


    The Salicutti style impeccably balances power and elegance, and the wines have an almost Burgundian sense of style and grace on the palate. Given the tiny production and stunning quality, Salicutti’s wines are highly sought after, and for good reason, as they have the stuffing to develop with age in the cellar and an elegance that makes them tempting to drink on release. They’re truly magnificent expressions of Sangiovese!
