Nestled in the heart of the Fiesole hills, overlooking Florence, Bibi Graetz has become an icon of Tuscan wines in just a few years. A painter by training, he embarked on his winemaking journey in the late 1990s with an instinctive, free, and uncompromising approach. The estate is now renowned for its singular, unconventional, and profoundly Tuscan style. Its flagship wine, Testamatta, expresses with intensity and elegance all the beauty of Sangiovese, the region's king of grapes. A wine born from old vines, it is at once pure, vibrant, and remarkably refined.

Notes and pairings

Tasting notes

The 2019 Testamatta boasts an intense ruby ​​color with garnet highlights. Its nose unfolds an expressive bouquet blending juicy cherry, violet, sweet spices, and a touch of minerality. On the palate, the attack is pure and silky, carried by lively freshness and chiseled tannins. The structure is elegant and dynamic, and the remarkably persistent finish leaves a floral and saline imprint that begs for another glass.

Food & wine pairings


This wine pairs perfectly with mushroom risotto, grilled veal chop, or pasta with truffles.
Producer

Producer

The old Sangiovese vines used for Testamatta grow on steep slopes between Fiesole and Vincigliata, at altitudes of up to 600 meters. The terroir consists of schist and sandy soils, providing excellent drainage and giving the wine tension and freshness. Rigorous organic viticulture allows the unique personality of these plots, true jewels of Tuscan winemaking heritage, to express itself fully.

Owner and history

Bibi Graetz, a passionate artist turned self-taught winemaker, embodies the soul of the estate that bears his name. Rejecting conventions, he relies on intuition, respect for the terroir, and creative freedom to produce wines with strong personalities. His commitment to old indigenous vines and his constant pursuit of purity have allowed Testamatta to establish itself as one of Italy's greatest wines. A sincere and uncompromising vision that captivates wine lovers worldwide.

Vinification and aging

At Bibi Graetz, winemaking is intuitive yet precise. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts to preserve the purity of the fruit and the varietal identity. For Testamatta 2019, aging lasts 20 months in neutral French oak barrels, so as not to mask the character of the Sangiovese. This extended maturation process brings complexity, finesse, and perfect integration of the tannins.
