Description:
A dark and deep color with wild berries, warm leather, and jasmine notes on the nose. There are also subtle notes of vanilla and dark chocolate. The palate is deep and powerful with blackberry nuances and a long intense finish.
Winery:
Considered one of Italy's most ingenious winemakers, Bibi Graetz has risen from artist to cult winemaker since the release of his first wines back in 2000. Born and raised in Italy, Bibi makes his wine in his family home, Castello di Vincigliata, a castle in Fiesole. The lack of a traditional Tuscan Estate has freed him to search out parcels of old vines around Tuscany.
Wine Making:
Selection of the best grapes of Sangiovese from the estate. Fermentation takes place in open top barriques with 6-8 manual punch-downs per day

Silky & Smooth
