'Bòggina C' by Petrolo is an organic red wine from Sangiovese in purity of great class and depth, born from old vines planted in 1974 and grown in the heart of the Val d'Arno. Aging in oak tonneau for 16-18 months. Complex and layered aromas, fruity notes, enriched with nuances of withered flowers, spices and touches of lavender and tobacco. Elegant and refined sip, deep, full-bodied, austere and material texture, thanks to the excellent integration of tannins in the general structure. A red with a multifaceted and complex soul, both in the nose and in the mouth, for a drink out of the ordinary.

Petrolo winery is located in the province of Arezzo, in the municipality of Mercatale Valdarno, among the green Tuscan hills. The estate was part, in the Middle Ages, of the Galatrona fiefdom, as evidenced by the ancient tower, from which the Petrolo wines take their name, and the parish church that contains a baptismal font by Giovanni della Robbia. Belonging to the Bazzocchi-Sanjust family for four generations, the Petrolo estate covers over 270 hectares, of which about thirty are currently planted with vines, while twenty are dedicated to the cultivation of olive trees. Since the second half of the 1980s, the objective of the Petrolo winery has been that of the absolute quality of the wines produced, starting from the understanding and interpretation of the enormous potential of the territory. Today the rows are conducted according to the rules of organic farming. A complete and harmonious range of labels, expressive and particularly faithful to the terroir of origin, as well as constantly striving towards the highest quality levels. Simply extraordinary wines.
