The 2020 Testamatta by Bibi Graetz marks a new chapter with a blend of Sangiovese from both old and new vines, emphasizing cooler growing conditions and northern exposures. In response to climate change and a quest for elegance, Graetz has incorporated grapes from a new vineyard near Fiesole. This breezy, high-elevation site contributes 30-35% of the fruit, imparting beautiful clarity, sharpness, and a lifted bouquet. The result is a vibrant, transparent, and fresh wine with notable acidity and aromatic intensity. Testamatta is evolving, making it a wine to watch.

Ruby red color. The nose is ethereal, with hints of cherry, light balsamic notes and sweet almond. In the mouth, it is voluminous, with well-structured and typical tannins of the ancient river terrace of Brolio.
