Tuesday, March 12, 2024 - Tasted at ProWein 2024

The densest and most lively Galatrona that I’ve had since the 2006. I’ve lost a bit track of Fatt. Petrolo since I found their wines becoming less exciting from the vintages ‘08 - ‘12. The ‘22 Galatrona (and to a lesser extent the ‘21 I had at the same place) is a great re-introduction for me.

Medium dark red/ruby color. Expressive aromas of red cherry, fresh berries and some strawberry and sweet tobacco evolving with some spices and hints of licorice and wet earth. Full bodied with silky mouth-coating tannins, fresh acidity and fresh fruit. The finish lasts very long and follows through seamlessly.
Very attractive in its youth already, has a Masseto-like liveliness. I expect this one to have a long and very interesting life ahead. Potentially giving it a notch up in rating in a few years. Drink now - 2037
