Product Notes

Petrolo Galatrona is an exquisite, full-bodied red wine delicately handcrafted in Tuscany, Italy. This single Merlot varietal offers a complex bouquet of dark berries, luscious blueberry, ripe plum, and sweet spices. This wine matures in oak barrels for 18 months, resulting in a smooth, velvety texture and balanced tannins. With its deep ruby colour, lingering finish and captivating nose, the Galatrona is a true reflection of Tuscany's terroir. It is the perfect accompaniment to richly flavoured dishes and is ideal for ageing, demonstrating an exceptional elegance and depth with each passing year. Enjoy a glass, and savour the taste of Italian excellence.

Tasting Notes

Intense elegant wine with great structure and complexity, lovely balance between acidity, fruit and tannins. A great wine, beyond the grape variety it’s made from, which talk of the piece of land it came from, a classic in its own way.

About the Winery

Petrolo

Nestled in the verdant hills of Tuscany, Petrolo Winery stands as a testament to the timeless allure of Italian viticulture. This enchanting vineyard (spectacular backdrop of meandering vine rows, framed with cypress trees) speaks of its age-old legacy. It is this history that gives the Petrolo vineyard its unique character, and imbues each bottle of its fine wine, with an unrivalled depth of flavour.

One of the winery's defining characteristics is its sustainable approach to winemaking. The owners are fervently committed to organic cultivation and biodynamic methodology. Its resolute adherence to these eco-conscious practices ensures the preservation of the terrain's biodiversity; safeguarding the unique terroir that's significant to Petrolo’s heady ambrosia.

Petrolo Winery embodies Italian luxury, boasting a suite of exclusive wines. Each expression, a symphony of tastes- from the robust, brooding notes of its flagship wine, "Galatrona," to the complex and delicately layered "Torrione". Acclaimed by connoisseurs globally, these wines serve as a testament to Petrolo's meticulous dedication to the craft.

Petrolo maintains an authentic Italian soul through its non-wine offerings as well. The vineyard still preserves century-old olive groves. The oil produced from these trees, invokes the authentic taste of Tuscan heritage, much like its celebrated wines. Visitors to the estate are treated to a tour of the functioning winery and get to sample this liquid gold too.

The allure of Petrolo extends beyond its wines and olive groves. The vineyard estate is also home to a stately villa, dating back to the 1700s. Picturesquely perched atop wine-covered hills, it offers a breathtaking vista of the Tuscan countryside; an idyllic setting for a dream Italian holiday.

In essence, Petrolo Winery is not just an establishement producing wines; it's a sensory journey of sights, smells, and tastes, one that unfolds the mystique of Tuscany. Visit Petrolo for its wines but fall in love with its evocative essence of Italian charm and luxury.
