| Perfume | Very distinct aromas of cherries and fresh flowers, such as roses. Also dehydrated orange peel. |
| Taste | Medium-bodied, with a core of fresh, solid fruit and very fine tannins. |
| History | Bòggina was born from a dream, the dream of engineer Gastone Bazzocchi, grandfather of the current owners and founder of Petrolo in 1947, when he planted this Sangiovese vineyard between 1951 and 1952. Bòggina is a wine with its eyes turned towards the past (the centuries-old tradition in Tuscany in its most beautiful and vocated parts of our Sangiovese...) but at the same time, a wine driven inexorably towards the future... (with the attention and extreme care for the smallest details that today, unlike yesterday, we put into the work in the vineyard and in the cellar). |
| Region | Tuscany |
| Country | Italy |
Description
