About the Bibi Graetz Testamatta 2023
Bibi Graetz Testamatta 2023 is an exceptional, elegant, and highly expressive Super Tuscan red wine crafted entirely from 100% Sangiovese sourced from old, high-altitude vineyards in Vincigliata, Olmo, Fiesole, Siena, and Lamole. Winemaker and artist Bibi Graetz utilizes open-top wooden casks for natural, spontaneous fermentations with gentle hand-plunging, followed by refinement in French oak. In the glass, it displays a bright ruby hue with seductive, floral aromas of fresh red cherries, roses, lemon blossom, and subtle dried herbs. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully structured, offering impressive tension, bright acidity, crunchy red fruit, and ultra-fine, silky tannins leading into a vibrant, long, and mineral-driven finish.
Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with bistecca alla Fiorentina, braised veal shanks, roasted rack of lamb, wild mushroom risotto, and aged Pecorino cheese.
James Suckling
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Bibi Graetz concluded this vintage with less collateral damage than many other vintners in Tuscany, who saw big drops in yields because of rain and mildew. He says he only lost 10% of his fruit. The 2023 Testamatta is Sangiovese with a tiny part of whole-cluster fruit. The wine is a little shy and closed on first examination, but it does reveal red and purple fruits with cassis and plum. It shows good freshness and fine tannins.
