“Torrione” Rosso Toscana IGT 2021 (BIO)

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

Bright ruby red with brick-red reflections. Plums and sour cherries on the nose, accompanied by tobacco nuances and dried violet flowers. The fine-meshed tannins combine wonderfully with the notes of red fruit and liquorice on the finish. Very juicy, clear and well-balanced. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, rich ruby red colour. Gentle and inviting nose of ripe cherry, light spice, some candle wax, red apple, sealing wax, precious wood. Juicy on the palate, with pithy tannins, well-integrated acidity, drinky, cheeky, slightly salty on the final." Falstaff

"The Torrione 2021 is one of the best wines of recent years. Bright acids drive through a core of red cherry/plum, blood orange, new leather and spice. The purity of the flavours is impressive. I especially admire the energy of this wine. This is a rare Torrione that I would cellar for at least a year or two." Vinous

"It shows dark fruit with bramble, tree bark, blue flower and sweet cherry. The wine offers mid-weight intensity with a long, silky mouthfeel. There is a point of bright acidity at the end, and even a hit of chili spice." Wine Advocate

"Bright and full of cherry, raspberry and floral notes, this red wine is harmonious and expressive. The finish shows accents of earth, graphite and tobacco, with a beautiful length and compact, chalky tannins." Wine Spectator

"The nose is like a cool, damp forest, with dark berries, fresh earth, but with a quiet rumble of warmth and savoury undertones, and the palate balances cool and warm, sweet and savoury, buoyant but indulgent. Valdarno delivers in every price range, but this one is a particularly good deal." Wine Enthusiast

"Inviting aromas of dark and blue fruits along with subtle notes of chocolate and spice 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 is better to give it a few more years in the bottle." James Suckling
