Bibi Graetz,
Testamatta
Testamatta is the wine that established Bibi Graetz internationally, offering a pure, modern expression of Sangiovese rather than the Bordeaux-variety model associated with many Super Tuscans. It remains the producer's most recognisable label, produced in greater quantities than Colore.

The Investment Case
Testamatta benefits from being the wine that established Bibi Graetz internationally and remains the producer's most recognisable label. It is produced in greater quantities than Colore, so its value is driven less by extreme scarcity and more by brand growth, critical consistency and demand for premium Sangiovese. Strong vintages purchased at sensible release prices therefore have the best prospects for retaining value.
