Tasting Note

The 2021 Bòggina A, 100% Sangiovese in amphora, is brilliant. Medium in body and wonderfully translucent, the 2021 captures all the magic of the year in its finely cut, chiseled personality. Once again, Luca Sanjust and his team have turned out a stunning, vivid Sangiovese that is a far cry from earlier vintages, when this wine was often much less pure.” – Antonio Galloni, VINOUS

Product Notes

Petrolo Bòggina A - Amphora is a unique and distinctive wine that embodies the true essence of Tuscany. Crafted by renowned winemaker Luca Sanjust, this wine is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes sourced from the historic Bòggina vineyard on the Petrolo estate. What sets this wine apart is its vinification process, which takes place in traditional terracotta amphorae. This ancient winemaking technique allows the wine to express its terroir with purity and finesse. The result is a wine that is elegant, complex, and full of character, with notes of red fruits, wild herbs, and a hint of minerality. Petrolo Bòggina A - Amphora is a true testament to the craftsmanship and passion of the Petrolo estate.

About the Winery

Petrolo

The history of the Italian wine label of Petrolo dates back to 1716 when the early traces of the wine-rich regions of Chianti centre, Carmignano, Pomino and Val d’Arno di Sopra were identified. By 1834, this region was acquired by the owner of Petrolo wines, Giorgio Perrin. It was he who discovered that along with the French grape varietals, Sangiovese could also be planted in this region, especially in the place called Campo Asciutto (known as Boggina today).
