Reviewed March 2025A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and a small amount of Sangiovese, the 2021 Piastraia opens with pure and attractive aromas of wild raspberry, perfume, Mediterranean herbs, and delicate cedar. Full-bodied, it has fantastic acidity, ripe, well-defined tannins, and an even and very long finish, with a lot of finesse and salty sanguine notes on the finish. Drink 2026-2046. (AF)

Wine Spectator
The core flavors of black currant, black cherry and pomegranate are shaded by mint, violet, iron and toasty oak notes in this dense, rich red, with a matrix of polished tannins for support. The balance is excellent, as is the aftertaste. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. Best from 2026 through 2040. *Highly Recommended* (BS)

James Suckling
A firm and composed red showing walnuts, dried herbs, clay, black fruit and cedar on the nose. It’s full-bodied, polished and compact, with firm yet fine-grained tannins. Toasted walnut character on a long finish. Drink from 2025. (CN)

Wine Advocate
This is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 20% Sangiovese from low-elevation vines (at 70 meters in altitude) on the sun-drenched Tuscan Coast. The Michele Satta 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Piastraia shows great balance with an overall restrained personality that leans into a classical interpretation of Bolgheri, like you may have seen a decade ago or more. The wine offers just enough blackcurrant and cherry to keep you coming back for more. You also get pencil shavings and a touch of savory spice. (ML)
