Fattoria Petrolo | Tuscany
Petrolo Soc. Agr. s.s. | Loc. Petrolo, 30 | IT 52021 Bucine

Brilliant ruby red with brick-red reflections. In the nose plums and sour cherries, accompanied by tobacco nuances and dried purple flowers. The finely woven tannins combine wonderfully with the notes of red fruits and liquorice in the finish. Very juicy, clear and balanced. SUPERIORE.DE

"Petrolo's 2018 Torrione is fabulous. Deep, inky and generous, the 2018 packs a serious punch. Ripe dark red fruit, chocolate, spice, leather and tobacco are all kicked up a few notches, with sweet floral top notes that add aromatic lift. The 2018 is an especially boisterous Torrione, with all the elements in the right place. In a word: delicious." Vinous

"This is such a fun edition of this wine with a fluttering heart sketched onto the front label. I imagine that the heart could be dedicated to proprietor Luca Sanjust's rambunctious mother who recently passed away. The wine opens to a dark and rich appearance with punchy aromas of tart cherry and wild berry. Warm aromas of tobacco, spice and cedar wood appear gradually as the wine opens in the glass." Robert Parker

"A red with plenty of blackberry, black-olive, floral and oyster-shell character. It’s full-bodied, yet layered, extremely polished and beautiful. A dusty texture. Hazelnut and walnut undertones. From organically grown grapes. A little more merlot and cabernet sauvignon in the blend." James Suckling
