Bibi Graetz - Toscana Testamatta 2021

A beautifully fragrant nose, delicately aromatic and inviting, with subtle notes of wildflowers, red and black fruits, and sweet spices. Chalky, powdery tannins support a bright acidity that gives it a lively and vibrant character. The tannins are exceptionally refined, yet with a hint of spice that provides structure and sustains interest; they are present without being overpowering, allowing the acidity and fruity aromas to express themselves fully. Beautifully defined and expressed, elegant, refined, and utterly captivating, it offers great aromatic complexity and a finish of remarkable length. Exceptionally drinkable, which is a true feat at this early stage of its life. Well-crafted, balanced, and pleasant, with warm, spicy notes on the finish. Truly wonderful and absolutely charming. Best enjoyed between 2026 and 2045.

The purity of the fruit is impressive, with soft, melt-in-your-mouth aromas of cherries, cranberries, and citrus that are wonderfully balanced. This medium-bodied wine blossoms on the palate, with firm, complex tannins and a long, intense finish. It will take three to four years to fully develop, but it’s already so alluring. A wine of great beauty. Already irresistible, but it will reach its peak after 2027.

An impressive vintage of Testamatta, with great freshness and a refined character. It has an intense ruby color with slightly purplish highlights. The nose is very fragrant, offering a complex bouquet of red and black fruits, dried figs, and ripe cherries. In the background, there are hints of sweet spices and candied zest. On the palate, the structure is harmonious, with ripe, balanced tannins, lovely acidity, and savory complexity. The finish, with beautiful depth and remarkable length, reveals a delicate minerality and elegant fruity notes. A very promising Testamatta.

A brilliant ruby color, reminiscent of a jewel. Captivating aromas of raspberry and red cherry. Fine, silky tannins. A refined structure, with mineral notes reminiscent of flint and licorice. A generous wine of great finesse that reveals itself gradually. The complexity of this wine is simply impressive. Sourced from the estate’s plots in Tuscany, where the vines—ranging in age from 5 to 80 years—thrive at altitudes between 400 and 600 meters. Native yeasts, six manual punch-downs per day, maceration for up to 10 days, and aging in barrels (no new oak). Best enjoyed between 2025 and 2038.
