Tasting notes
The 2020 Boggina A, 100% Sangiovese vinified and aged in amphora, is possibly the best vintage of this wine I have ever tasted. Finely sculpted and nuanced, the 2020 sizzles with energy. Crushed rocks, red fruit, spice, mint, rose petal and orange peel are all beautifully delineated throughout. Just as important, the 2020 doesn't have any of the awkward aromas and flavors that have penalized some previous editions. Superb.

The Petrolo 2020 Val d'Arno di Sopra Bòggina A presents the Sangiovese grape with a fresh, focused, almost crunchy personality. This organic wine opens to aromas of wild strawberry or fragolino, lilac, blood orange and rusty earth. It boasts a quasi shiny or brilliant character. Bòggina A shows a lot of primary freshness, fine tannins and balanced acidity.
