Bolgheri is the Beverly Hills of Italy, the high rent district, and one of the most sought-after appellations in Tuscany. It's where you find Sassicaia, Ornellaia and Masseto. In fact, Michele Satta started his own winery in 1982 with newly acquired vines from his previous employer, Ornellaia! A blend of native Sangiovese, combined with Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Merlot crafts an Italian wine expressing complex cherry, plum, and spice tones on a backbone of leather, black pepper, and almonds. Aged 18 months in barrique then another 24 months in bottle, there is a depth and elegance to Piastraia that you only see in $200+ Super Tuscans. An incredible value, don't miss this amazing Italian red!
Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points
"The nose is earthy, herbal and sour, like drinking an elegant cocktail on the porch of a cabin in the woods. The palate is instead full of cherries and plums and finishes salty and nutty, like an artisanal chocolate. The tannins are solid but navigable, and the acidity is substantial." The Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
"Shows aromas of fresh black cherry and blackberry that are pure and expressive, accented by wild herbs, cedar, iron and spices. Dense, yet balanced and fresh, with refined tannins gracing the lingering finish. Merlot, Sangiovese, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2024 through 2035." The Wine Spectator, 92 Points
