The Michele Satta Cavaliere 2016 is a stunning expression of Bolgheri, showcasing the region’s ability to produce wines of remarkable depth and character. With a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, this wine unfolds with vibrant notes of ripe black cherries, wild herbs, and a hint of spice, all underpinned by a subtle earthiness that speaks to its terroir. The 93-point score from James Suckling, along with accolades from both Robert Parker and Decanter, affirms its quality and finesse. On the palate, it reveals a velvety texture and balanced acidity, making it an ideal companion for grilled lamb or a hearty mushroom risotto. This wine not only delivers a delightful tasting experience but also represents a smart buy for the quality it offers.
