Fattoria Petrolo
Tuscany, in Italy

This 272 hectares estate dates back to the 17th century. Out of which 31 hectares are vineyards planted with Sangiovese, and Merlot, on rocky and clay soil. The Bazzocchi family acquired the Winery in the 1940s and since the middle of the 1980s the proprietors have pursued a wine production based exclusively on the highest quality research.

The territory is in the commune of Bucine, at Mercatale Val d’Arno where the territories of three provinces, Florence, Siena and Arezzo, touch. The altitudes are lower and the temperatures warmer than the Chianti Classico zone. And Merlot does extremely well here.

Today the estate is owned and run by Madam Lucia Bazzochi, assisted by Giulio Gambelli, whom has relationship with its wine style influenced from leading producers in Bordeaux, Pomerol and St. Emilion, where Merlot is king.

From the producers, there are two main product offering and bottling:

Torrione (Red): is a 100% Sangiovese wine made from 40 year old vines with low yields, 14 days fermentation and a further 15 months in French oak, barrels prior to bottling and release.

The wines of Petrolo is priced well and remains within reach to the average wine consumer. Galatrona, while is more expensive, is highly sought after and often compared to the Le Pin of Pomerol, a prized gem by collectors and Italian wine lovers.
