The 2020 Galatrona is stunning. In fact, the 2020 is one of the best vintages of the Galatrona I can remember tasting. I am especially impressed by its vertical intensity and explosive energy. All the elements are iso impeccably woven together. Dark-toned fruit, crushed rocks, menthol, licorice and spice build into the intense, palate-staining finish. The 2018 spent 18-20 months in French oak, about 25% new, with some larger barrels thrown into the mix. Magnificent.

Subtle yet intense aromas of black fruit and violets. Extremely perfumed. Crushed stones. Medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that give a mouth-feel of velvet that goes on for minutes. Refined and fresh. Al-dente fruit. From organically grown grapes. Better in three to four years.”

The Petrolo 2020 Galatrona is a pure expression of organic Merlot and the estate's headline wine. It was first created in 1994 when Luca Sanjust's second child, Lucia, was born. Despite the summer heat that became a challenge for winemakers in many corners of Tuscany, Galatrona shows terrific results in 2020. The vineyard is located in a cool and thickly forested position almost exactly between Florence, Arezzo and Siena. The vintage has a classic quality with a subtle bouquet that grows in intensity as the wine opens in the glass. Aromas of cherry, toasted almond and dried mint fuel a long and very elegant finish. The oak tannins are soft and sweet, and the wine boasts long-lasting flavors.<br/>

Produttore
Fattoria Petrolo
Tenuta Petrolo, di proprietà della quarta generazione della famiglia Bazzocchi-Sanjust, situata nella sotto-zona dei Colli Arentini nel Chianti sud-orientale, si concentra sulla produzione di vini di altissima qualità. Con l'aiuto esperto dell'enologo Simone Cuccoli e del consulente enologo Carlo Ferrini, il vigneto di 31 ettari produce uno dei migliori Merlot in purezza della Toscana. Il ricco Merlot Galatrona può competere facilmente con i migliori Pomerol. Il vino di punta, Torrione, esprime lo spirito della proprietà in un'irresistibile bottiglia di Sangiovese. Il Torrione sta al Sangiovese come il Galatrona sta al Merlot. Completano l'elenco altri cinque vini, alcuni dei quali sono vini unici da singolo vigneto, come il Campolusso e il Boggina.
