Bibi Graetz only found his eponymous winery in 2000 but rapidly built a solid reputation for his wines, with Testamatta being a centrepiece of his portfolio. This is a 100% Sangiovese single varietal, from old vines of up to 50 years old. The wine has a delicate bouquet of cherry, berry, bark, with some floral and truffle scents. It’s a full-bodied wine, with arresting minerality and complexity. Testamatta 2018 was awarded a perfect 100 points by Jane Anson from Decanter.

The Bibi Graetz 2018 Testamatta is a wine that was affected by outside factors. For one, it was in barrel during the COVID-19 lockdowns, and Bibi says he spent six months fussing over this production. Secondly, this vintage directly followed 2017, which saw heat stress in the vineyards, with some of that hardship spilling over to this wine. It shows good fruit with chalky tannins, but you don't get the same depth or detail as in other vintages.Monica Larner30th October 2025
