Torrione marks the beginning of the Petrolo’s quality revolution. It is considered to be the true identity of Petrolo, made with a blend of grapes from all of the estate’s vineyards. With a blend of Sangiovese, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, Torrione is also in keeping with the Tuscan tradition of adding Bordeaux varieties to Sangiovese and instilling a sense of place in the French varieties, lending them a distinctly Tuscan character.
The 2022 Petrolo Torrione is dark ruby in color with extravagant aromas of strawberry preserves and sweet herbs. The palate offers a silken mix of crushed red fruits, black cherry jam and sweet tobacco, all framed by fine, slightly dusty Tuscan tannins. It’s at once powerful and elegant. Winemaker Notes
Blend: 80% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon
94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Petrolo 2022 Torrione reveals a luminous ruby tinge and follows through with bold cherry, blackcurrant and crushed rose. This vintage brings forth more textural heft in terms of mouthfeel, and it feels a little richer on the finish. Excellent quality at an affordable price.
