2010
Tolaini
Al Passo IGT
Tuscany
"The 2010 Al Passo is a pretty blend of Sangiovese and a smaller percentage of Merlot from an elegant vintage. The wine is redolent of sweet spice and tobacco with lingering prune and dark cherry. The tobacco theme is strong with dried cigar leaf and ash. The wine is lively in the mouth, with a tight vein of acidity that keeps it from feeling heavy on the palate." (WA)
Wine Advocate: 92 pts.
"Also recommended." (IWC)
International Wine Cellar: 87 pts.
"Tolaini's 2010 Al Passo fleshes out with hints of tobacco, leather, spice and red cherries. The flavor profile offers plenty of Sangiovese inflections, while the Merlot adds a measure of depth, although the 2010 remains a wine with only modest intensity. Hints of tobacco, crushed flowers and dried cherries linger on the close." (AG)
Antonio Galloni: 87 pts.
"Blueberries and blackberries with hints of dried flowers with hints of fresh mushrooms. Full body, firms and silky tannins and a fresh, fruity finish. A blend of Sangiovese and Merlot. Better in 2015 but delicious already." (JS)
James Suckling: 91 pts.

2010
Tolaini
Valdisanti IGT
Tuscany
"The 2010 Valdisanti (Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc) is staked tall with bold fruit nuances of dark cherry, blackberry, spice, tobacco and Spanish cedar. Crushed white pepper and grilled herbs also play into the mix. This is a large, extracted wine that glides slowly over the palate, imparting a lingering sense of depth and richness. " (WA)
Wine Advocate: 93 pts.
"Also recommended." (IWC)
International Wine Cellar: 88 pts.
"Crushed flowers, tobacco, dried flowers, menthol and leather flesh out in the 2010 Valdisanti. The 2010 lacks freshness and depth, so it is best enjoyed over the near term." (AG)
Antonio Galloni: 88 pts.
"This is is rich and dense with a fabulous silky tannin mouthfeel. Full body, with loads of fruit and a long, flavorful finish. Lively acidity keeps the wine agile and fresh. Better in 2016 but so delicious now. A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Sangiovese and 5% Cabernet Franc." (JS)

100% SANGIOVESE
2012
Petrolo
Il Torrione IGT
Tuscany
"Effusive aromas and flavors of cherry, strawberry and peony highlight this elegant red. Well-integrated tannins amp up the structure and density on the finish. Best from 2016 through 2023. 3,750 cases made. –BS" (WS)
Wine Spectator: 90 pts.
"The 2012 Torrione is seriously beautiful. Dark red cherry, plum, spice and mocha notes flesh out in a supple, radiant wine endowed with gorgeous depth and pure resonance. All the elements meld together in this gracious, juicy Sangiovese-based red from Petrolo. Dollops of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon round out the blend." (VM)
Vinous Media: 91 pts.
"A very successful 2012 with a beautiful texture of ripe tannins plus cherry, chocolate and berry character. Full body and a silky texture. Outstanding harmony and balance. Drink now." (JS)

1005 SANGIOVESE
2012
Petrolo
Boggina IGT
Tuscany
"Pure and focused, with black cherry, black currant, plum and spice flavors. The acidity is vivid, the tannins firm and balanced. Just a bit clipped on the finish. Sangiovese. Drink now through 2024. 500 cases made. –BS" (WS)
Wine Spectator: 90 pts.
"The 2012 Boggina (Sangiovese) is one of the more restrained, finessed wines I have tasted at Petrolo. Weightless and gracious in the glass, the 2012 is built on a core of super-expressive, floral and red-toned fruit. With air, the Boggina fleshes out and takes on slightly darker shades of expression. Hints of tobacco and mint add nuance on the finish in a highly appealing, fruit-driven Sangiovese to drink now and over the next decade-plus" (VM)
Vinous Media: 93 pts.
"A wonderful balanced and refined red with a fabulous density and richness plus ripe strawberry. Full body, silky tannins and a long, long finish. Lots of cherry and chocolate with chili flakes too. Precise and harmonious. Incredible. Better in 2016." (JS)
