“Campo Lusso” Cabernet Sauvignon Val d’Arno di Sopra DOC 2020 (BIO)

Fattoria Petrolo | Tuscany
Petrolo s.a. s.s. | Loc. Petrolo 30 | IT 52021 Bucine

The small vineyard is located 500 metres above the Galatrona Tower and offers the best conditions for growing the French Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety. Due to the limestone subsoil, this site is also known as a luxury site (campo lusso). Intense and generous bouquet of dark fruit, leather and chocolate. Complex and deep on the palate, very focussed and, with aeration, very elegant and aristocratic. A complete red that will not only delight Cabernet lovers. Only around 1,300 bottles of this spectacular wine can be produced per vintage. SUPERIORE.DE

"Shimmering, dark ruby colour with pronounced violet notes. Opens with notes of tobacco, plus fine cedar wood, then lots of rich cassis notes. Crisp, dark berry fruit, lots of dark currants, fresh acidity, fine-meshed tannins, has a lot of pressure on the final. " Falstaff

"The 2020 Campo Lusso is a pretty open, aromatic wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Medium in structure with advancing aromatics, this is an intriguing Cabernet Sauvignon that should be consumed in the near term. Leather, spice, tobacco and dried cherry notes come forward." Vinous

"This new release from 2020 is beautifully full-bodied and rich, with accessible fruit flavours of blackberries and blackcurrants. The tannins are gently integrated into the full-bodied texture of the wine." Wine Advocate

"The aromas of blackcurrant and slate come through clearly, along with undertones of gravel and violets. Asphalt as well. Medium to full body with very fine, chewy tannins that linger. Straightforward and structured with vertical depth. Muscular, mountainous tannins. A pure Cabernet Sauvignon from a small production made on a small mountain in Tuscany. Try after 2026."
