Product Details:  Unveiling the essence of Tuscany in a glass, the Michele Satta Piastraia is a captivating red wine that embodies the artistry of winemaking and the richness of the Bolgheri terroir. Crafted with precision and passion, this blend showcases the harmonious marriage of traditional grape varieties, resulting in a wine that speaks to both history and modernity.

Tasting Notes: In the glass, the Piastraia exhibits a deep, garnet hue, hinting at the concentration and depth within. The nose is a sensory journey through the Tuscan landscape, with aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and a subtle hint of Mediterranean herbs. Oak ageing imparts notes of vanilla and a touch of spice, adding layers of complexity to the bouquet.

On the palate, the wine unfolds with a velvety texture and well-integrated tannins, providing structure and balance. Flavours of blackcurrants, plums, and a touch of leather dance on the taste buds, while a gentle acidity adds freshness and vitality. The finish is enduring, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruit and a touch of smokiness.
