Michele Satta is one of Italy's greatest ambassadors for the Viognier grape, which he has almost single-handedly brought to this part of the Tuscan coast. His Viognier is sophisticated and seductive, making it the object of desire for wine lovers all over the world. Its inimitable bouquet of apricot and peach exudes an almost cheerful floweriness. Maturation in a combination of cement, oak and amphorae gives this expressive, flavoursome white wine a beautiful note. A dense white wine that spreads softly across the palate with a lovely salty freshness and a long, delicious finish. From the 2024 vintage, it is a 100% Bianco from the Bolgheri DOC. SUPERIORE.DE

"The successful result of a whole-cluster pressing of Viognier, partly matured in amphorae: exquisite lime blossom notes, with a touch of sun-warmed apricots and subtle spice; creamy on the palate, the acidity vivid, elegant and mineral." Vinum

"Bright, pale straw yellow with a silvery sheen. Soft and sweetish on the nose with notes of camomile and lime blossom honey, followed by hints of guava and banana. A beautiful interplay of crisp acidity and ripe fruit on the palate, with a long finish." Falstaff

"Fragrant and fresh style here. Very citrusy, with orange blossoms and tangerines, lanolin and chalky minerality. Medium- to full-bodied with impressive density and weight. Silky texture and tingling acidity, integrated with citrus flavors, giving a polished finish." James Suckling

"Aromas of yellow apple, daffodils, salted almonds and lemon bloom on the nose, and then usher in a denser palate which is laden with apples, pears, lemons, limes and oranges. Buoyant with salt and acid on the finish, but with a chalkiness that provides balance." Wine Enthusiast
