Colore is Bibi Graetz`s Gran Vin, from very old vineyards of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino. On average, only 1,800 bottles per year are produced of this wine. 2016 will be remembered as one of the greatest ever Tuscan vintages and the wine displays incredible power, concentration and complexity. Blackberries, plum, tobacco, vanilla, and leather abound wrapped in velvety tannins and a never ending finish.

The 2016 Colore is dark and brooding in the glass, slowly blossoming with a wave of dried black cherries, sage, cinnamon and crushed ashen stone. It washes across the palate with the silkiest textures imaginable, neatly balanced by brisk acidity, which also helps to enliven its core of tart red and black fruits. This finishes classically structured and incredibly long, leaving sour citrus and sweet herbal tones to linger on. The 2016 still needs time, yet patience will be rewarded.

The nose shows real elegance and spice and subtle notes of dried herbs. Such firm tannins that are backed up by wonderful fresh acidity. The palate has a light peppery note and seems to glideover the palate, stopping only to tickle the roof of your mouth. Savoury and sapid, extremely impressive. (AC)
