Bibi Graetz is one of the most distinctive figures in contemporary Tuscan winemaking. The winery was founded in 2000 on the hill of Fiesole, near Florence, the place where Bibi grew up. From this historic site, there is not only a breathtaking view of Florence, but also a truly unique terroir.
From the very beginning, Bibi Graetz was drawn to the old vineyards of Tuscany – to their subtlety, elegance, and ability to express pure fruit character. Unlike many producers in the region, Bibi deliberately turned his attention to abandoned and forgotten plots of very old vines. Today, the estate manages and cares for one of the largest collections of old vineyards in Tuscany, with some parcels reaching 70 to over 100 years of age.
The majority of Bibi Graetz wines are made from traditional local varieties, primarily ‘Sangiovese’, as well as ‘Colorino’ and ‘Canaiolo’. The winery seeks to highlight the authentic character of each site, applying minimal intervention in the vineyards, natural fermentation, and restrained ageing.
