Rezensionen & Bewertungen
99 James Suckling
This is a phenomenal pure merlot with blueberries, raspberries and hints of milk chocolate. Some nutmeg too. Full body with very fine yet chewy tannins and a long, intense finish. Reminds me of the amazing 1998. Best ever from here. Needs four or five years of bottle age to soften.
94 Robert Parker
Very intense and inky black, the 2011 Galatrona is a hugely ripe red wine. Fruit was picked on August 25th, which is a record in terms of early harvests at this estate. The bouquet revs up slowly with aromas of scorched earth, blackberry confit, toasted espresso and bitter chocolate. You also get a note of savory mineral or burnt flint that adds contours and definition to that significant intensity. The wine offers trace sweetness on the finish that contributes to the opulence and richness of the overall package.<br/>
94 Wine Spectator
Round and polished, packed with violet, black currant, cherry, mineral and spice flavors, supported by dense tannins. Spice and toast accents linger on the extended finish. Merlot. Best from 2016 through 2026. 384 cases imported. –BS

Fattoria Petrolo
Die Tenuta Petrolo, in der vierten Generation im Besitz der Familie Bazzocchi-Sanjust, liegt im Unterdistrikt Colli Arentini des südöstlichen Chianti und ist auf die Produktion hochwertigster Weine spezialisiert. Mit der Hilfe des Önologen Simone Cuccoli und des beratenden Önologen Carlo Ferrini bringen die 31 Hektar Weingärten einen der feinsten 100-prozentigen Merlots der Toskana hervor. Der reichhaltige Galatrona Merlot nimmt es spielend mit den besten Pomerol-Weinen auf. Als Flaggschiff der Marke offenbart der Torrione den Geist des Hauses in einer unwiderstehlichen Flasche Sangiovese. Der Torrione ist für Sangiovese, was der Galatrona für Merlot ist. Petrolo komplettiert seine Produktpalette mit fünf weiteren Weinen, darunter einzigartige Lagenweine wie Campolusso und Boggina.
