Petrolo IGT Toscana Trebbiano Petrolo Bòggina B 2021

Unusual and compelling, with an edge of smoky reduction, then waves of honeydew melon, cut grass, pressed flowers, feels alive and vibrant. Spice arrives on the finish, even edges of tar and bergamot. Lovely wine from Luca Sanjust, 2.5ha estate with Tuscan Trebbiano selected in Valdarno and planted in the 1970s at Petrolo in the “Poggio” vineyard, recently replanted using the same original clones. As it approaches the 10 year anniversary of the inaugural 2014 vintage, this wine has carved out its place. Aged in large oak casks, on the lees with no racking until bottling.
