2023 Bibi Graetz Casamatta Bianco

Founded in 2000 by the charismatic Bibi Graetz, the Tuscan winery has achieved true cult status over the past twenty years. The winery has many fans with its idiosyncratic wines and artistic labels. This also includes the international wine press, which now awards the top wines Colore and Testamatta very high points every year.

The Bibi Graetz Toscana Casamatta Bianco comes from old vineyards in the Tuscan Maremma. The vineyards are located between Capalbio and Argentario, on the southern coast of Tuscany. The wine is a blend of Ansonica, Trebbiano, Vermentino. The grapes are destemmed and then softly pressed (with dry ice). The juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a very low temperature to preserve freshness. This process takes two weeks. After blending, the wine matures for another 3 months in stainless steel tanks. In the glass, the Casammatta is pale yellow with pear, lemon peel, orange and peach, blossom and a hint of mint in the nose. In the mouth, the wine is fruity and refreshing. Lightly filmy. Layered wine. Delicious to enjoy on its own and of course with pasta with seafood.
