Made from Sangiovese grapes, it presents a bright ruby red colour. On the nose, it offers an intense bouquet, where notes of undergrowth and humus intertwine with hints of cherry, violet, raspberry and blueberry. On the palate, it reveals an \u003cstrong\u003eelegant and balanced structure\u003c\/strong\u003e, supported by vibrant freshness and a pleasant savouriness.

The wine matures on fine lees in \u003cstrong\u003elarge oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for eighteen months, a process that softens the tannic texture and enriches the aromatic complexity without overpowering the character of the grape variety. This is followed by \u003cstrong\u003ebottle ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e for at least six months, essential for balancing the structure and pronounced savoury component. The result is a red wine of excellent balance, distinguished by a dense and profound \u003cstrong\u003etaste texture\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn from the vision of Vittorio Moretti and oenologist Giuseppe Caviola, Petra enhances the Tuscan territory by combining iconic architecture with meticulous \u003cstrong\u003eagronomic zoning\u003c\/strong\u003e.
