Campo Lusso 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon DOC Val d'Arno di Sopra

Campo Lusso 2018 by Fattoria di Petrolo is a refined Cabernet Sauvignon in purity, an expression of a single vineyard and a production vision oriented towards precision and territorial identity. It is a wine of great personality, born to best enhance the character of the DOC Val d'Arno di Sopra and to offer an elegant, deep, and authentic profile.

Territory and wine style

The Campo Lusso vineyard is located at almost 500 meters above sea level, on a natural terrace surrounded by woods and situated below the ancient tower of Galatrona. This context helps define a fine and measured style, supported by an interesting balance between fruit maturity and freshness. The cultivation is organic and the yield is very limited, elements that reflect a careful approach to quality and the enhancement of the individual plot. The name recalls the ancient peasant definition of the field, considered the most beautiful of the estate, a detail that well summarizes the prestige of this label.

Tasting notes

In the glass, Campo Lusso 2018 shows the typical profile of high-level Cabernet Sauvignon: intense color, often dense and deep, with an aromatic range that can evoke ripe black fruit, fine vegetal notes, spices, and balsamic nuances. On the palate, the wine tends to have structure, progression, and a tannic texture that is present but elegant, supported by good freshness. The aging in new French oak barrels for about 20/22 months contributes to giving complexity, breadth, and a persistent finish, without overshadowing the character of the fruit and the territory.

Recommended pairings

This Italian red wine pairs effectively with structured and flavorful dishes. It is ideal with grilled red meats, roasts, braised dishes, beef fillet, and oven-roasted lamb. It also goes well with game, mushrooms, aged cheeses, and rich preparations from Tuscan cuisine. Its combination of freshness, structure, and tannin makes it suitable for important dishes based on intense sauces.

Serving temperature

The ideal temperature to serve Campo Lusso 2018 is between 16 and 18°C. If opened in advance, it can express itself with greater harmony, especially in an early stage of aromatic evolution. A brief passage in a decanter can be useful if you want to encourage the opening of the bouquet and soften the initial impact.
