A wine that is a representation of how Bolgheri knows how to produce wines of great drinkability and satisfying complexity. The color is ruby-red with aromas of fresh red and black fruits with a hint of leather and tobacco. On the palate the wine is harmonious; the fresh fruit combines with a solid structure and good tannins providing for a finish that is persistent and elegant.

Blend: 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 30% Sangiovese, 10% Syrah, 10% Teroldego

Vinification : Fermentation takes place in steel and cement tanks using spontaneous yeasts. Initially, two pumpovers per day are carried out, which are later thinned out depending on how the extraction proceeds. The same applies to the maceration time, estimated on the basis of frequent tastings. After malolactic fermentation, which naturally take place in November, the various vinifications are assembled and go into maturation .

Fining : 12 months, part in cement casks (30 hl), part in barriques of second and third passage.

Longevity : 10 years.

Description

94, James Suckling

Intense, vinous nose with a touch of clove to the cassis and red cherries. Lush, supple fruit with velvety tannins and full body. Crisp acidity and a polished finish full of fruits and spices. Just a bit austere. Drinkable now, but not without potential for 4-5 years of aging.

93, Wine Spectator

A suave customer, this red exudes cherry, black currant, raspberry, mineral and spice aromas and flavors. Silky and harmonious, with the right amount of structure and drive on the long finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, Merlot, Syrah and Teroldego. Drink now through 2032. 7,500 cases made, 2,100 cases imported.

91, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Now showing the name Toscana on the front label (signaling updates to appellation law), the Michele Satta 2022 Bolgheri Rosso is an updated blend of 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Sangiovese, 30% Merlot and 10% Syrah (aged in concrete and barrique for 12 months). This is fresh and fruit-forward red with an easy-drinking style. Cherry flavors are especially prominent in this hot-vintage wine, and its elegant high notes remain intact.
