“Torrione” Rosso Val d’Arno di Sopra DOC 2022 (BIO)
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 at the same time ethereal and weightless. Here, generosity meets delicacy. It is fluid, dynamic and immediately drinkable, but it would be better to give it a few more years in the bottle. SUPERIORE.DE

“Bòggina A” Sangiovese Val d’Arno di Sopra DOC 2020 (BIO)
The A in the name of the Boggina stands for the natural wine aged for about 6 months in terracotta amphorae of 400-600 Liters each, which is bottled in an edition of just 5,000 bottles without further addition of sulphites. Bright, luminous garnet red. The bouquet is ethereal, very delicate and nuanced, with a very precise fragrance interpretation of the Sangiovese grape. Medium-bodied, with a beautiful structure and authentic Sangiovese fruit with a salty vein. The finish is highly drinkable, with silky tannins and a beguiling length. A masterpiece of beauty and elegance. SUPERIORE.DE

“Bòggina B” Trebbiano Toscana IGT 2022 (BIO)
Bòggina Bianco is an extremely brooding, flavoursome and fresh Trebbiano from vines that are around 50 years old. It is the result of Luca Sanjust's encounter with Lucien Le Moine (Mounir Souma), a great producer in Burgundy, who has contributed significantly to the success of this extraordinary project with his inspiration and expertise. Vinification takes place in French oak barrels and tonneaux specially made for this wine and selected by Lucien Le Moine. The wine remains "sur lies" (on the lees) for the entire ageing period of over 2 years, which gives it an incredibly fresh flavour and harmony. An extremely rare and very delicious exceptional white wine, which is only produced in small quantities of a few 1,000 bottles. SUPERIORE.DE

“Bòggina C” Sangiovese Val d’Arno di Sopra Riserva DOC 2020 (BIO)
Since the exceptional 2019 harvest, Luca Sanjust has taken another step in the direction of "quality without compromise" with his Boggina C. The yields per plant have been reduced even further and the selection of grapes from the identified plot has been made even more rigorous. This led to a reduction in the number of bottles available to around 3,000. The same meticulousness was applied in the cellar, selecting the most suitable 7 hectolitre barrels for ageing "sur lie". Great attention was paid to their wood grain and toasting in order to achieve the harmony and flavour that a pure Grand Cru Sangiovese should have.

“Galatrona” Merlot Val d’Arno di Sopra DOC 2022 (BIO)
Galatrona is a pure Merlot in a class of its own. Black-red ruby in the glass. Black berries, fine woody spice and some leather on the nose. Very generous fruit flavours and extremely complex on the palate, it glides elegantly into the depths until it is picked up by a finely woven tannin and leads into a long and finesse-rich finish. A wine that has no need to hide behind Masseto & Co. On the contrary, for us it has been Italy's Merlot benchmark for years. SUPERIORE.DE

“San Petrolo” Passito Bianco Toscana IGT 2008 dolce
In 2001, Luca Sanjust unceremoniously renamed his Vinsanto del Chianti "San Petrolo Passito Bianco", as he was no longer willing to put up with the uncompromising and incomprehensible views of the consortium on the specification of a Vin Santo del Chianti Classico. For some of the analytical values (sugar, acidity, alcohol content) of his exceptional dessert wine did not correspond to the rigid specifications of the regulations, which, however, did not detract from the quality of his wine. There are just 600 bottles of each vintage, but they are quite something.

Galatrona is a pure Merlot in a class of its own. Black-red ruby in the glass. On the nose, black berries, fine wood spice and some leather. Very generous fruit aromas and extremely complex on the palate, it glides elegantly into the depths until it is caught by a finely woven tannin and passes into a long and finesse-rich finish. A wine that does not have to hide behind Masseto & Co., on the contrary, for us it has been Italy's Merlot benchmark for years. SUPERIORE.DE

The Torre di Galatrona, which gives its name to the top wine of the Fattoria Petrolo, is visible from afar. Between Florence and Arezzo flows the Arno. The Val d'Arno, a historically always contested, fertile area, for centuries characterized by olives, wine and forests, is rich in former castles and forts. The Tower of Galatrona probably dates back to an Etruscan stronghold. And it adorns the labels of the Fattoria Petrolo, to whose lands it now belongs.
The winery, which has won many awards, has been part of the DOC Valdarno di Sopra since 2011. At last, they remembered and gave this region its historic name again. In 1716, Cosimo II de Medici named Val d'Arno di Sopra as one of the four best zones for olive and wine growing in Tuscany. For decades, the region was known as the Chianti Colli Aretini, the hills of Arezzo. However, the provisions of this region were too casual for the Bazzocchi-Sanjust family, who acquired the estate in the late 1940s. Lucia Bazzocci and her son Luca Sanjust, who now runs the winery, decided at the end of the 1980s to trim production to the highest quality and therefore left the Consorzio. For years the wines were therefore labelled as Rosso Toscana IGT. Which did not prevent international critics from awarding up to 99 points. James Suckling even named Galatrona 2015 the second best wine in the world.
The Fattoria Petrolo is situated at an altitude of between 250 and 450 metres above sea level. Of the 272 hectares of land, 26 hectares are planted with vines. The oldest vineyards date back to 1947, and most of the vines were replanted in the 1990s following analyses carried out by Prof. Scienza of the University of Milan. With up to 5,500 vines per hectare, but with a yield of only 25 hl/ha. This results in about 70,000 bottles per year. The Galestro soils are typical of the Apennine region of Tuscany, but here they are interspersed with slate, limestone, clay and sandstone and are characterised by minerals.
In addition to the leading variety Sangiovese and small quantities of old autochthonous, almost extinct varieties, Merlot, from which the highly awarded Galatrona is pressed as a pure variety, as well as a little Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petit Verdot are planted. The Cabernet Sauvignon stands in the highest position below the tower at about 500 m above sea level and is a bush culture, here called Albarello. Some Malvasia and Trebbiano complete the range. The white grapes are not only used to produce a very exquisite and rare Vin Santo, but also, with the help of Lucien le Moine from Burgundy, a white wine ("Boggina B") which is quite exceptional for Tuscany. In the last two decades Luca Sanjust has often broken new ground. Today you can find many a terracotta amphora in the most modernly equipped cellar, in addition to cement tanks for fermentation and wooden barrels of various sizes, from the classic large "Botte" to tonneaux and barriques. Depending on grape variety, location or cuvée.
Luca has gathered a team of renowned experts around him. Stefano Guidi and Simone Cuccoli are the Fattoria's oenologists, Carlo Nesterini is an agronomist who looks after the vineyards, and no less than the great Chianti connoisseur Carlo Ferrini has been recruited as an external consultant. For more than 20 years, some of the vineyards have been cultivated organically, and since 2016, all the grapes have been certified organic. The committed goal is to convert the entire DOC Valdarno di Sopra to organic cultivation and thus become a pioneer in Italy. A good idea. SUPERIORE.DE
"It is no coincidence that the winery has been romping around in the upper echelons of the Tuscan wine league for years ... In all production phases, but especially in the vineyard, meticulous care is taken here." Gambero Rosso"
Luca Sanjust has long been working with extended skin macerations, amphorae and a non-interventionist's approach. He is a historian of local wine culture and ampelography. Indeed, he is one of the most vocal proponents of the recently established Val d'Arno di Sopra appellation." Robert Parker
