This Barolo displays elegance, fine tannins, a persistent taste and minerality. It accurately reflects the characteritics of the soil of origin. Its tannins develop from a rugged soil, sandy and calcareous. Ruby red in colour with light garnet reflections, delicate notes of spices and liquorice and a desirable bouquet of red berries. Extraordinarily long finish. An exquisite Barolo that can age for another decade or so, but can be enjoyed with a good decant. Pair with something that is just as extraordinary.
Oddero produces some of the finest wines in Piemonte, and was one of the first to bottle Barolo. They also only farm organically.

This historic property dates back to 1834, when it was owned by agronomist Giorgio Perrin, owner of Petrolo and member of the Accademia dei Gergofili of Florence. He celebrated Sangiovese and this land, especially a spot called Campo Asciutto (now Bòggina), explaining how it was common practice at the time to plant “French grapes” in Chianti to blend with Sangiovese, in soils that favour specific varietals. The estate was acquired in the 40s by the Bazzocchi family who followed the tradition of carefully producing high-quality wines with utter commitment. The characteristics of this area add to its value; the land of Petrolo, where vineyards, olive groves and woods coexist, living side by side, forming a rich ecosystem that contributes to the perfect balance between the different grape varieties. The vineyard extends for three ha and was planted in 1990 on soils with a higher concentration of clay. Galatrona is the first Merlot vineyard that Petrolo planted, and it, along with Sassacia, is Italy's equivalent to first-growth Bordeaux.
