History |
Bòggina was born from a dream, the dream of Eng. Gastone Bazzocchi, grandfather of the current owners and founder of Petrolo in 1947, when he planted this Sangiovese vineyard between 1951 and 1952. Bòggina C a wine turned towards the past (the secular Tuscan tradition in its most beautiful areas vocated to our Sangiovese...) but at the same time a wine pushed inexorably toward the future... (because of the painstaking care we now put, unlike the past, in the slightest details of all processes, in the cellar and in the vineyards). |
