Tasting notes
The Bibi Graetz 2022 Testamatta Bianco is fresh in character and linear in terms of its aromatic delivery. It helps that one-third of the wine goes through stainless steel, with the rest in neutral oak. This approach allows you to better appreciate aromas of fresh peach, white plumeria flower, persimmon, salty minimality and iodine. It's also worth noting that the Testamatta sources much of its fruit from north-facing slopes. Those cooler conditions certainly help in a hot vintage like 2022.

About this wine
Bibi Graetz is a visionary Tuscan producer renowned for crafting distinctive, terroir-driven wines that challenge convention. The estate's philosophy centers on minimal intervention winemaking and deep respect for the Tuscany landscape, producing wines of remarkable elegance and individuality. Testamatta represents the producer's commitment to exploring unique expressions of Italian viticulture.
This Toscana IGT white is crafted from Inzolia, a noble Sicilian grape that thrives in Tuscany's Mediterranean climate. The wine displays a fresh, mineral-driven character with notes of stone fruit and subtle floral complexity. At 14% alcohol, it achieves a beautiful balance between richness and finesse, making it versatile across the table.
Testamatta pairs beautifully with shellfish, lobster, white fish, and delicate chicken preparations. Its saline minerality and medium-plus body also complement truffle-based dishes and refined pasta courses, ideal for fine dining, villa entertaining, and sophisticated coastal entertaining.
