Description

Still red wine from Tuscany IGT, 14.5% ABV, produced by Petra. 100% Sangiovese. 0.75 L bottle, 2021 vintage. A Sangiovese that embodies Petra's passion and commitment, an ambitious project that interprets the Maremma terroir. The nose focuses on notes of undergrowth, humus, cherries, and violets, accompanied by hints of berries, raspberries, and blueberries, with a mineral undertone. A bright ruby color. The palate is varietal: fresh, savory, with an elegant structure, firm tannins beautifully interwoven with a fruity flavor profile and a lingering mineral finish.

Petra, like "pietra" (stone) in Latin. Like the solidity of work, which both Francesca and Vittorio Moretti (father and daughter) have based their project upon. Like the historic fragments found out in these lands, giving evidence of a far away past , leading from the Old Greek civilization to Etruria (ancient name for Tuscany) and from there to France. An ambitious project that claims to interpret the territory, to grasp the characteristics that make it unique, making it an exceptional wine-growing area. To live up to this, Vittorio Moretti entrusted the agronomic investigation to Prof. Attilio Scienza, the greatest expert in zoning, while the structure was designed by Mario Botta, who gave the winery the status of a true architecture of work and hospitality.
