The Testamatta Toscana IGT 2018 by Bibi Graetz is a red wine that embodies the essence of Tuscan terroir and the winemaking artistry of its producer. Made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, Testamatta is a selection of the best vineyards of Bibi Graetz, located in the most suitable areas of Tuscany, including Fiesole, Siena, and Lamole. The vineyards, with an average age of over 50 years, are cultivated with sustainable and environmentally respectful agricultural practices. The harvest, strictly manual, takes place in the first half of October, selecting the best clusters directly in the vineyard. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts, followed by an 18-month aging in French barriques, which gives the wine structure and complexity without overwhelming its elegance.
