Petrolo Campo Lusso Cabernet Sauvignon 750ML
Campo Lusso is the "Grand Cru" of Cabernet Sauvignon of Petrolo. It's made from the vineyard of the same name planted the 11th September of 2001. The name derives from an old expression of local farmers that have been calling the field holding this vineyard as the most beautiful of the estate, "a real luxury" (Campo Lusso, luxury field). This vineyard, surrounded by woodland, is placed on a natural terracing, just below the medieval watchtower of Galatrona and has particularly good weather and soil conditions.

Wow. Black currants, oyster shell, lavender and wet earth. Some mushrooms, too. It changes all the time. Full-bodied with chewy, polished tannins that are extremely creamy in texture. Beautiful fruit at the finish. From organically grown grapes. Needs three to four years to come together, but a beauty already. Try after 2024. JamesSuckling.com
