SPECIFICATIONS

TASTING NOTES

Each variety that makes up the wine is fermented separately in 30 hl conical cement vats, using only spontaneous yeasts. After the first 2-3 days of open pump-overs, the process switches to one closed pump-over per day to promote better extraction. The moment of racking is carefully chosen through frequent tastings, typically occurring after about 20 days. Once racked, the wine is transferred directly to barriques to complete malolactic fermentation. Aging continues in French oak barriques, with 40% new wood, for a period ranging from 12 to 18 months. This process allows the wine to develop complexity and harmony. Thanks to its structure and balance, the wine has an extraordinary aging potential, extending up to 20 years. In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red color. On the nose, it reveals a bouquet rich in notes of forest fruits, complemented by spices and delicate floral nuances. On the palate, it stands out for its complexity and elegance, with well-integrated tannins that enrich its structure, leading to a long and pleasant finish. Perfect for pairing with red meats, game, roasts, and aged cheeses, this wine is also an excellent match for typical Tuscan dishes, such as the famous Bistecca alla Fiorentina and ribollita. To fully appreciate it, we recommend allowing the wine to "breathe" for 15-30 minutes before serving it at a temperature of 16-18°C.

Michele Satta

Brand: Signorvino
SKU: VFR00313 2022750
Price: 44.9 EUR

The winery Michele Satta is one of the most representative of the area of Bolgheri, but its birth happened in a completely random way. In 1974, Michele Satta, a student of Agriculture at the University of Milan, was on holiday on the Tuscan coast, near Castagneto Carducci. During this stay, he met the owner of a farm who offered him an internship during the harvest. This is how his passion for viticulture was born. After graduation, Michele started looking for land to rent to start a wine business and found old vineyards with an adjoining cellar, which became the basis for an adventure that would lead him to produce some of the best known labels in Bolgheri. The project was officially launched in 1983, one year before the creation of the DOC Bolgheri. Towards the end of the 80s, Michele bought his first land and planted his first vineyard in areas he considered particularly suitable, also starting the construction of the cellar. During this period, he undertook several trips to the main wine regions of the world, which enriched his experience and expanded his knowledge. Today, the winery covers 23 hectares of land, with an annual production of about 150,000 bottles. Name and address producer/distributor: Cantina Michele Satta - Via Casone Ugolino, 23 - Castagneto Carducci (LI). The products of this cellar should be stored in a cool and dry place away from heat sources.
