Petrolo Torrione Toscana 2022

Some Tuscan estates seem to fly under the radar despite making wines that outperform their more famous neighbors. Petrolo is exactly that kind of hidden gem – a producer that insiders know delivers extraordinary quality that often surpasses Super Tuscans costing twice or three times as much.

Located in the Valdarno Superiore, Petrolo sits in the center of a triangle formed by Florence to the north, Siena to the southwest, and Arezzo to the southeast. While there are few notable estates in this immediate neighborhood, once you begin climbing the property’s undulating hills, you quickly understand what makes this place so special.

These guys are making some of the very best under $50/bottle Super Tuscans all the way up to what has been described as the ‘Le Pin of Tuscany’ for their flagship bottling. If you don’t know Petrolo, it’s time to make a change ASAP!
