    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

    "Rich ruby colour with a violet hue. Shows a lot of sweet, dark berry fruit on the nose, lots of blackberry and wild raspberry, plus fine tobacco and chocolate notes, some cardamom. Fresh, dark berry fruit on the palate, juicy and with good tension, very easy to drink, fine, elegant tannins." Falstaff

    "The Galatrona 2022 with 100% Merlot, is another very attractive wine from Petrolo. It offers a beautiful upfront appeal that matches its uncomplicated personality. Blue and violet fruits, liquorice, lavender, spices and mocha blend together." Vinous

    "The floral aromas are captivating, with flavours of violets, lilacs, orange peel, raspberries, rose petals and some oranges. It is medium to full-bodied with crisp and open-grained tannins that are creamy and flattering. The finish is endless. Crisp and energetic. A wine that makes you think and gives great pleasure. Of such purity. It's like eating perfectly ripened grape must. In many ways already drinkable now, but it will develop wonderfully. A new reference point for Merlot in Italy." James Suckling
