2023, Bibi Graetz, Testamatta Rosso, TOSCANATestamatta is a Supertuscan wine made from 100% Sangiovese sourced from younger vines of almost 20 years old, and is a perfect combination of tradition and creativity that expresses the purity and elegance of this varietal. 2023 was a very complicated vintage, according to Bibi Graetz, who produced 32,000 bottles of Testamatta 2023 out of a typical production of over 100,000. Despite the issues, he claims it's probably the best Testamatta we have made

with brilliant length

The 2024 Clos Fourtet is a gorgeous

Pleasant bitter finish

gradually opening with beeswax and honeysuckle scents

blackcurrant leaf aspects too

Cuvée Théo and Réserve Gwzt - now merged and called “Les Treilles du Loup”

followed by hints of star anise

especially in warm

perhaps not quite as complex as the Corton Grandes Lolières but there is fine persistency

Lots of parcels making up around 2 hectares of vines

The rest is classically trained

Great stuff here
