Product Notes

Petrolo’s Torrione Wine, hailing from the Tuscany region of Italy, exemplifies an exquisite, multidimensional gem. Torrione blends Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, resulting in a full-bodied, robust flavour profile. With noble, deep cherry tones and a hint of earthy spice upstaged by a rich, velvety texture, it boasts a sophisticated yet accessible personality. The wine's intense ruby red hue radiates beauty, beckoning one to explore its structure and charm. Thanks to Petrolo's commitment to both traditional methods and modern innovation, each vintage showcases Tuscany's terroir impeccably, making it an absolute delight for wine enthusiasts.

Tasting Notes

Inviting aromas of dark and blue fruits together with subtle notes of chocolate and spices with hints of blue flowers and crushed stones. Medium- to full-bodied, complex and structured, but ethereal and weightless at the same time. That’s where generosity meets delicacy.

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.
