Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

If tasted blind, I would have difficulty fitting this wine into a Bolgheri slot. More central Tuscany or even Spain. This wine has lots going for it, with aromas of hung meat, dried blackberry, and herbs on the nose. The palate explodes with ripe black briar fruit, kirsch and light roast coffee. Tannins are present, but not the fine-grained ones found in higher-end Bolgheri. Excellent value. I'm 90 points on this wine. (ottawawinejournal.com)

Samson Ling reviewed this wine as follows:

Wow. This is really beautiful with loads of blackberry, dark chocolate and meat character. Full and velvety. Love the texture. Fruit and herbs. Best Satta in years. 30% Cabernet, 30% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 10% Teroldego and 10% Syrah. Score - 92. (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, Dec. 27, 2011)

Michele Satta believes that you can never really measure the quality of a wine according to numerical parameters (acidity, residual sugar, etc.). He says “it would be like talking about the charm of a woman simply by listing her measurements.” Wow. This is really beautiful with loads of blackberry, dark chocolate and meat character. Full and velvety. Love the texture. Fruit and herbs. Best Satta in years. 30% Cabernet, 30% Sangiovese, 20% Merlot, 10% Teroldego and 10% Syrah. Score: 92 Source: James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
