“Bibi makes one of Tuscany's true cult wines, Testamatta. It's a pure Sangiovese that has the race and breed of a grand cru Burgundy. Think of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti's La Tâche. He is a freak for old vines in Tuscany.”。
---James Suckling.
葡萄酒权威酒评家 James Suckling 在品尝过 Bibi Graetz Testamatta 2015 年后，给出以上惊人评语：“这是意大利托斯卡尼最顶级的膜拜酒之一，留着勃根地顶级园血液的 Sangiovese 红酒。让人联想到罗曼尼康蒂酒庄的 La Tache 顶级园红酒。”
而罗曼尼康蒂La Tache 顶级园红酒动辄六位数起跳，是什么样的滋味魔力，让这位酒评家给出这样的感想呢！？
“This is a great wine, with scope and imagination that doesn’t want to let you go. ”。
--- Robert Parker
Robert Parker 更是如此说道: “我不断的对毕比格雷兹的葡萄酒感到惊艳，极度的珍贵罕见、出品充满情感令人一试难忘”。
毕比格雷兹 (Bibi Graetz) 是一位充满了艺术气息的酿酒师，他的葡萄酒充满令人意想不到的童趣和想像空间。Bibi Graetz 成长于意大利 Florence 北方的 Fiesole 山丘。虽然父母有着葡萄园，但他却是热衷于艺术，直到 90 年代，Bibi Graetz 才走上酿酒之路。他自始追寻托斯卡纳 (Toscana) 的地方品种的可能性，艺术家的狂热气息，从他的酒款名称及酒标，就可知其一二。
也是这样的洞察力才让他揭发了Fiesole内Vincigliata区的潜力，这个多年沈寂的地区有着适合葡萄成长的泥灰土、富含盐分以及水分使葡萄酒拥有完美的平衡。在顶尖酿酒顾问 Alberto Antonini 协助下，Bibi Graetz 在 2000 年成立了他的酒庄。成名大作 Testamatta 将 Sangiovese 的力道发挥极致。
成绩数度高挂于 Wine Spectator / Wine Advocate 的排行榜，确立了其膜拜酒的地位，2010 年份 James Suckling 拿下了 98 分， 2015年份更是荣获 99 分近乎完美的葡萄酒，可见此酒庄并非属于昙花一现的流行。
Bibi Graetz曾在《神之水滴》中出现！这个被《神之水滴》所力荐的名庄，只专注于托斯卡纳本地葡萄的酿造，风格却是国际派 — 摆脱意大利给人既有偏酸的印象，反而是浓郁甜美、热情奔放、同时兼具细致细节。酒庄旗舰酒款Colore曾跻身Wine-Searcher网站意大利最贵的十大葡萄酒榜单之列！
从未读过葡萄酒酿造和种植学，也从未受过相关的专业教育，凭着个人对大自然的敏感度以及高度的创作力和想像力，坚持使用托斯卡纳的原生品种，将意大利葡萄酒带入新境界。知名漫画《神之水滴》不只一次提到这个酒庄，并且还针对毕比格雷兹这样一个艺术型的酿酒师进行专题报导，毕比格雷兹有的不仅仅是创意更是对于酿酒的细腻度。
Colore is the highest expression of Bibi Graetz dream, from very old vineyards of Sangiovese. Poor soils mixed with sand and stone and high altitude create the perfect terroir for a wine that tells a lot about Tuscany and its ancient taste. Only the best few barrels of the whole production will become Colore.
“Testamatta” - “crazy-head” in Italian - is the best word to describe Bibi Graetz: a positive, creative and passionate person. Testamatta wine expresses the purity, minerality and transparency of Sangiovese from old vines on the top of the hills characterized by soils rich of stones. A Supertuscan made with 100% Sangiovese, result of the combination of tradition and creativity.
Colore Bianco comes from an old vineyard overlooking the sea, where the wind, the sun and the salt break the granite rocks to create sandy soils where the Ansonica variety has been grown for centuries.
Bibi Graetz spent on Giglio Island his childhood where he experienced the unique viticulture of the island. Testamatta Bianco was born thanks to the stories and knowledge the old farmers told him every morning while going to the vineyards together with their donkeys.
Casamatta Rosso reflects the freshness, transparency and strength of the red fruit of Sangiovese variety. Entirely vinified in steel in order to preserve its vibrant and playful character.
Bollamatta is a charmat method made with Sangiovese coming from the best vineyards, the same used for Testamatta and Colore. Green harvesting to realize an immediate, fun and pleasant sparkling wine which is the result of great terroir and creativity.
