Petrolo Torrione Tuscany IGT 2016

The Petrolo estate was acquired in the 1940s by the family Bazzocchi that followed up the tradition of carefully producing high quality wines. The peculiarities of this area adds to its value; the land of Petrolo, where vineyards, olive groves and woods coexist, living side by side, forming with the soil a rich ecosystem that contributes to perfectly balance the different grape varieties. Petrolo's vineyards extend across 76 acres of which 64 are in production to date. With an altitude between 750 and 1,350 feet. our vineyards grow over moderately loose-packed soil with rocky stratifications of limestone, sand, claystone and flakes of shale typical of the Chianti area.
