Michele Satta

A rosé made from Sangiovese according to the classic Pet-Nat method, harvested in the last half of August and whose carbonic acid is created unplanned by the almost complete fermentation of the sugar in the bottle. A sparkling wine with a yeast deposit that has played its way into the hearts of "natural wine" fans in a fresh and unconventional way. Ideal for aperitifs and light summer dishes. Unfiltered and unsulphured. SUPERIORE.DE

Exceptionally well-made Bolgheri Rosso. Its unmistakable character and strong Tuscan identity can be enjoyed with all senses. A perfect wine in Satta's first-class style: powerful, dynamic, complex with noticeably fine tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of currants, spices, bark, mushrooms and dark earth follow through to a medium to full body with firm, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. The hints of pepper and spices are fascinating." James Suckling

Michele Satta's Viognier is sophisticated and seductive and therefore the object of desire for wine lovers all over the world. Its inimitable bouquet of apricot and peach exudes an almost cheerful florality. A dense white wine that spreads softly and with a beautiful freshness on the palate and lingers long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich shimmering golden yellow with copper. Fragrant bouquet of dried apricots, dates and cloves, fine cedar and a hint of caramel. Wiry on the palate with an exciting acidic edge, very vertical in the course, good structure, salty at the end with a multi-layered finish." Falstaff

Satta's almost black-purple Syrah with an extraordinary bouquet of blueberry and blackberry liqueur, tar and graphite shines with richness and intensity. Not a flatterer, but not an edgy representative either - a sensational wine for today and the years to come. SUPERIORE.DE

Piastraia fully corresponds to the classic image of a great Bolgheri Rosso Superiore. Made from a quarter each of Merlot, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, it fills the glass with its intense scent of fruit and a hint of leather aromas. The taste is strong, concentrated and pure. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich ruby red. In the nose very spicy with a tendency to animal, truffle, rich Amarena cherries, ripe plums, in the reverberation leathery-earthy tones. On the palate very spicy, very dark berry, opens with a dense texture, the dark fruit and spice are embedded in salty, tightly meshed tannin, coherent in itself, earthy, even more fun with preventive aeration." Falstaff

"Really attractive currants, spice, black licorice and blueberries follow through to a full body with very fine tannins that integrate beautifully into the wine. Blackberries and currants. Pure and finely structured." James Suckling

Bright dark ruby, intense and inviting nose with a pronounced aroma of dark fruits, especially blackberries, with some liquorice behind. Firm and gripping on the palate with taut tannins, the Cavaliere shows its animating (Sangiovese) style over the course of the wine and keeps a good pressure until the long final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Shiny garnet red with a shimmering core. In the bouquet blueberry, pickled plums, dates, cloves, also a bit fleshy. Enters the mouth smoothly with finely meshed tannin, shows itself powerful but polished in body, with lots of melting and persistence, presses again on the palate in the finish." Falstaff

"Spicy with cherry kernel, violet and wild herbs, this Sangiovese is perfumed and fresh with bold balsamic notes. Firm, crunchy and quite lean, don't look for suppleness on the palate as the wine is tight and chalky with a cherry and liquorice stick finish." Decanter

"Really attractive nose of cherry, spice and dried meat, following through to a medium to full body with a round, chewy mouth feel and a flavorful finish. Lots of character here. Hint of sage to the fruit at the end." James Suckling

This is the second vintage of the currently only Bolgheri Superiore, which is produced apart from the classic French Bordeaux grape varieties. It consists of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Syrah. Two grape varieties that the Sattas have studied for several decades and whose quality has convinced us and the international critics for many years. Marianova combines great aromatic breadth with a gigantic drinking pleasure and at the same time underlines the great individuality of the winery like no other wine.

Bright ruby red. In the nose a potpourri of spicy notes: spicy the Syrah and crisp the Sangiovese. Small red ripe berries and some blackberry essence mix with moist soil, smoke, tree bark and tar. This exceptional wine is carried by a bouquet of dark fruits and a fresh acidity, its impressive finish is infinitely long and powerful. SUPERIORE.DE

"3250 bottles are pressed by this Sangiovese and Syrah selection in its second vintage: an enchanting bouquet of cherries and spices; a smooth course with very well integrated powerful tannins and invigorating acidity, shows elegance until the final. Vinum

"Brilliant ruby violet with a slightly bright edge. A lot of present fruit, like mulberries and blueberries, in addition dark cherries, some spicy macchia smoke. A dense tannin with a sweet core, develops for a long time with a lot of pressure, tobacco in the final." Falstaff

"Marianova is the first Bolgheri Superiore to be made without any Bordeaux varietals. Instead it's a 50/50 blend of Syrah and Sangiovese, the idea of Michele Satta’s son Giacomo, first produced in 2015. Ruby red and restrained, it's focussed on vibrant raspberry and cherry aromas layered with indian spice notes and a touch of leathery character. It shows a firm yet ripe tannic structure with chewy acidity and a great savoury finish of toasted notes and prunes." Decanter

"Aromas of currants, crushed berries and walnuts, as well as chocolate. Full body, juicy tannins and beautiful fruit at the end. Big wine that needs time to soften. A blend of sangiovese and syrah." James Suckling

"On first nose, the 2016 Bolgheri Superiore Marianova (equal parts Syrah and Sangiovese) shows savory and barbecue-like aromas with teriyaki sauce and hickory smoke followed by plummy fruit and blackberry preserves. There is a note of sweetness with lots of spice, leather and tobacco at the edges. Of Michele Satta's releases, this wine is the most unlike him in that it is the most contemporary and enriched. This is the second vintage of Marianova (the winery’s latest creation) to be released." Robert Parker
