Bibi Graetz S.R.L. Piazza Mino, 37 50014 Fiesole (FI)
A pure Sangiovese from the hills of Fiesole. It is called Colore, and it is a Rosso IGT produced by Bibi Graetz, an unconventional winemaker. An authentic expression of the territory and of the Sangiovese vine. Fiesole, a few kilometres from Florence, offers a unique terroir for the cultivation of Sangiovese. The calcareous and clayey soil, rich in minerals, and the Mediterranean climate, with warm days and cool nights, create the ideal conditions for ripening the grapes. The vinification of this Colore follows a careful process. Each plot is vinified separately and the grapes, after careful selection in the vineyard and in the cellar, are gently crushed and fermented in open barriques and steel or wooden vats. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, with manual pumping over and punching down to extract colour and aromas. After fermentation, the wine matures in barriques for 18 months. On the nose, red flowers, spices and leather blend with notes of ripe fruit, creating an elegant and persistent bouquet. In the mouth it conquers with its firm structure and elegance. Fine, well-integrated tannins support a rich, persistent body, giving a long, satisfying sip with a spicy, lingering finish. It is a wonderful accompaniment to savoury red meats, roasts and braised meats. Also excellent with mature cheeses.
Bibi Graetz's oenological adventure was born in the heart of Tuscany. A perfect marriage between art and wine that has given life to a winery that has quickly become an absolute reference point on the Italian and international scene. Bibi Graetz, the son of artists and raised in a creative environment, graduated from the Accademia delle Belle Arti in Florence. However, he soon realised that his true passion was wine. In 2000, he decided to take over the family vineyards in the Colli Fiorentini, in Vincigliata. Here, he began to work and experiment with the native grape varieties of the area: Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino. Here, a unique terroir, characterised by high altitudes and mineral-rich soils, offer an ideal habitat for growing high-quality grapes. Bibi Graetz's philosophy is based on three fundamental cornerstones: the use of indigenous varieties, the exploitation of high altitudes and respect for old vines. His wines are the result of meticulous and passionate work, while the labels are world-famous for their originality and beauty. Created by internationally renowned artists, they are the perfect dress for wines with a unique and memorable personality.
