Bibi Graetz Testamatta Rosso Toscana 2019

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate awards 94 points and high praise to the Bibi Graetz Testamatta Rosso Toscana 2019 as “a pure expression of Sangiovese” in its accolade to this fantastic Tuscan red wine, which is also celebrated by other wine critics around the globe. James Suckling awards it 97 points, followed by Falstaff with 95.

Connoisseurs can look forward to a fascinatingly complex and intense bouquet. Suckling writes of a “very attractive combination of dried fruit and spices with black cherries and plums. Aromas of flowers and sandalwood, too.”  The Wine Advocate detects “perfumed blue flower, candied orange peel, wet earth and plummy black fruit.”
 
On the palate, the Bibi Graetz Testamatta Rosso Toscana 2019 is full-bodied, simultaneously powerful and elegant. The velvety tannins are wonderfully integrated and intertwined with the intense fruit, resulting in an exceptional taste experience. Moreover, according to the Wine Advocate, “a strong chalky mineral signature” characterises the looong finish.

Bibi Graetz himself wrote, “Elegance, that is the word that describes Testamatta 2019,” adding that “Testamatta 2019 is perfectly balanced with deep layers that show incredible complexity."

The grapes for the single-varietal Sangiovese come from the five best vineyards of the Testamatta estate in Tuscany: Vincigliata, Londa, Lamole, Montefili and Siena. The vines are up to 80 years old. The staff involved in producing the Bibi Graetz Testamatta undertake up to eight (!) harvesting phases. Only grapes of optimal ripeness are used in this shimmering, deep ruby red wine. The wines from the individual vineyards were aged in oak casks for 20 months.

Graetz wrote, “The 20th anniversary of Testamatta is a real milestone, the pinnacle of quality that I have been looking for in my Sangiovese since the first vintage in 2000.” Those who open a bottle of the Testamatta 2019 are fortunate to be able to share in it.

Product recommendation

Le Volte dell Ornellaia Rosso Toscana IGT
The grape composition for the red wine Le Volte dell Ornellaia Rosso Toscana IGT comes from the slopes of the Tenuta dell' Ornellaia vineyard in Tuscany. The full-bodied red wine is made from the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot grape varieties and impresses at first glance with its deep, dark purple-red color.After careful decanting, the bouquet opens up with finely spiced nuances of mulberries, cherries and cocoa beans. This aromatic composition is underpinned by the delicate spice of Mediterranean herbs and an exceptionally fine acidity. Finally, the fruity composition on the palate is surprising, giving the red wine a wonderfully soft and silky finish.As Le Volte Rosso is a good storage wine, it will accompany you for a long time with dishes such as game, dark meat or strong poultry. The recommended drinking temperature is between 16 and 18 °C.
