Costa di Giulia Bolgheri Bianco 75cl

Wines and Spirits Malta — Wed, 28 Oct 2026 00:48:47 +0000

A white wine with the nerve to be born in red-wine country. Michele Satta made Bolgheri's first Vermentino in 1984, and in 1997 added Sauvignon Blanc to give Costa di Giulia more character, structure and a broader finish. The blend (70% Vermentino, 30% Sauvignon) ferments slowly at very low temperature, then rests about six months on fine lees in steel. Expect citrus, peach, melon and mint, with a salty, sea-breeze note, a touch of honey and a creamy, lingering finish. Lovely young with seafood, it also gains complexity with a few years in bottle. Coastal Tuscany, poured.

Satta Cavaliere 75cl

In Bolgheri, a land of Cabernet and Merlot, Michele Satta chose to champion Sangiovese, and Cavaliere, "the knight", is his personal crusade. This single-variety Sangiovese from Castagneto Carducci is a Tuscan red with real character: a brilliant dark ruby, with blackberry, preserved cherry and liquorice, then a taut, lively palate with fine tannins and a long finish. The 2021 earned 93 points from Falstaff. Satta is one of Bolgheri's pioneering estates, and Cavaliere is its quietly rebellious signature: a bright, elegant red that proves Sangiovese can shine on the Tuscan coast. Pour it with a hearty Tuscan supper and enjoy the plot twist.
