Like most of Bibi Graetz wines, the name is very evocative, “CasaMatta”: the “Crazy-House”, Casamatta Rosso reflects the freshness, transparency and strength of the red fruit of Sangiovese variety. Entirely vinified in steel to preserve its vibrant and playful character. It is a pure transparent Sangiovese with plenty cherry and raspberry, nice acidity which helps with food and a round medium body with low tannins and a vibrant and surprising aftertaste.
