About This Wine (Staff Pick!)
Michele Satta Bolgheri Rosso 2023 is a quietly confident expression of Bolgheri, blending Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and a distinctive touch of Teroldego to bridge Tuscan tradition with the region’s modern, international style. The wine opens with layered aromas of black cherry, plum, and violet, followed by notes of Mediterranean herbs, licorice, subtle smoke, and a savory mineral edge. Medium-bodied yet substantial, it shows vibrant acidity, polished tannins, and a long, balanced finish that makes it as compelling now as it will be with short-term cellaring. The inclusion of Teroldego adds lift and tension, setting it apart from more conventional Bolgheri blends. Adding to its pedigree, Michele Satta previously worked at the storied Ornellaia, experience that clearly informs the wine’s sense of precision, restraint, and respect for place.
