Bibi Graetz 2024 Releases: "So Refined and Sophisticated"

↓ Jump to the wines

The new vintages of Testamatta and Colore are here, and to mark their 25th anniversary, come in exciting special anniversary bottling. As ever with this popular club release, we can confirm the wines are singing, having been fortunate enough to taste them with the estate recently.

Maverick winemaker Bibi Graetz has become one of the brightest stars of the new Tuscan wave. Working with old-vine Sangiovese (some over 80 years old) across Tuscany, and with barely a whisper of new oak, Bibi crafts wines of remarkable purity, perfume and precision, a far cry from the heavy-handed styles of old.

Sourced from five high-altitude 100% Sangiovese vineyards, Testamatta is what we like to call Sangiovese for Burgundy lovers — graceful, layered and endlessly expressive. Colore, meanwhile, is drawn from just three ancient sites (the oldest vines in Lamole are over 135 years old, producing pitifully low yields) and has achieved 97 points from both James Suckling and Colin Hay, with the former calling this year's rendition "so refined and sophisticated".

Production is limited as always, but we're thrilled to have a small number of cases (and large formats) available to buy online, so please act quickly if you would like to get your hands on these Tuscan Icons.
