97 points James Suckling: "This white offers serious layers of fruit and acidity with fantastically complex apples, honey blossom, nuts and walnuts on the nose and palate. It’s full-bodied, yet fresh and vivid. Acidity and fruit is all there. Soulful is the word. An exceptional wine that shows such complexity and beauty. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

94+ points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "[$75 list price] This is a niche wine that will capture your heart and mind. The Petrolo 2018 Bòggina B (closed with a wax capsule) is a pure expression of Trebbiano that is aged carefully on the lees to add to its aromatic intensity and complexity. Trebbiano can sometimes produce viscous and waxy wines, but that's not the case here. This is a beautifully pure and sophisticated expression that offers honey, peach, acacia flower, toasted almond and spicy saffron. The aromas are delivered with extreme focus and sharpness, and that's the main takeaway of this vintage. Fresh acidity and racy mineral notes give this white wine the power to cut through an epic spaghetti alle vongole. If you don't already know Bòggina B, I highly recommend you try it. Drink: 2020-2031. (Oct 2020)"
94 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "[$75 list] The 2018 Bòggina B (Bòggina Bianco) is bright, focused and full of energy. Lemon peel, crushed rocks, mint and white pepper come alive in a wine that combines sizzling energy and depth. A hint of reduction remains, but it adds character without dominating the wine's balance. Wow! Drink: 2023-2033. (Sep 2020)"
93 points Falstaff Guide: "Bright straw colour with an olive shimmer. Enigmatic nose with traces of hay, wild herb, rosemary, a touch of wax, followed by white peach and pear yoghurt. Textured and creamy on the palate, elegantly spreading across the tongue with a smidgen of saltiness. Light on its feet with an extensive finish. (Feb 2021)"
