O Produtor, tasting note published in February 12th 2021
For many years, making a wine with Bordeaux-style grapes was not even a possibility. Supertuscan for me was Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino. It still is, but I don't like to lock myself in boxes and decided to create an international blend by breaking my own rule. This is my modern interpretation of
Supertuscan, with low oak and fantastic energy and elegance. Red fruits at the start, with room for plum, dark chocolate and leather, with superfine acidity supporting freshness and elegance rather than power and structure.
The grapes, from the area between Firenze and Siena, are harvested and selected by hand on the plants, destemmed and gently pressed before fermentation. Natural fermentation, using indigenous yeasts and without any temperature control, between 9 and 12 days, followed by 3 to 5 days of maceration of the skins. The ageing process, as well as the fermentation, is carried out in stainless steel tanks for 18 months.
Contains sulphites.

Bibi Graetz Winery was founded in 2000 on the hills of Fiesole, overlooking Florence, where Bibi, raised in a family of artists, fell deeply in love with wine and made it his life. Fascinated by old vines — for their finesse, elegance, and the purity of the fruit they produce — Bibi Graetz now holds one of the largest collections of old vineyards in Tuscany.
