This Tuscan Merlot from Petrolo’s Galatrona vineyard layers vivid raspberry and dark cherry fruit with delicate rose and violet tones, set against a subtle mineral edge. The 2022 Galatrona shows remarkable precision and lift for such a warm year, with ultra-fine, velvety tannins and a long, focused finish that stays bright and refined rather than heavy.

Galatrona is Petrolo’s flagship, single-vineyard Merlot from the clay‑rich, schist- and sandstone-influenced Galatrona-Feriale site in the Val d’Arno di Sopra DOC on the southeastern edge of the Chianti hills. First produced in 1994 and now farmed organically, it’s conceived as a Tuscan “grand cru” Merlot, known for its combination of dense structure, dark-fruited richness, and refined, terroir-driven elegance that has made it one of Italy’s most acclaimed modern reds.
