Galatrona Magnum by Petrolo is a red wine of extraordinary refinement and complexity, hailing from the marvelous region of Tuscany. This enological gem is crafted exclusively from Merlot grapes grown in a single vineyard, giving the wine a unique and unmistakable character.
The harvest is done manually with extreme selection of the grapes to ensure only the best in the production of this wine. After harvesting, the grapes undergo a prolonged maceration, followed by fermentation in small steel tanks. The wine is then aged in French oak barriques for a period ranging from 15 to 18 months, depending on the vintage, integrating the elegance of the wood with the power of the fruit.
Galatrona Magnum exhibits an intense and deep color. On the nose, rich notes of ripe black fruits such as blackberries and plums can be detected, along with hints of chocolate and vanilla, a result of the aging in barriques. On the palate, the wine demonstrates a robust structure with well-integrated tannins and a persistent freshness that invites another sip. The finish is long and enveloping, with a return of spicy and fruity notes.
Ideal to serve with hearty dishes such as red meats, game, or richly seasoned dishes, Galatrona Magnum is also perfect as a meditation wine. Its presentation in Magnum format also makes it an excellent candidate for special occasions, ensuring the wine's evolution for many years to come.
A true example of Tuscan excellence, Galatrona Magnum by Petrolo represents a prestigious choice for any wine enthusiast seeking something truly exceptional for their cellar.
