2019 Bibi Graetz Testamatta Bianco
Wine Advocate, January 2021
“The 2019 Testamatta Bianco is an open-knit and generous expression of Ansonica from various vineyards spread across the yellow granite stone island of Giglio off the Tuscan Coast. This wine is a little flatter compared to the Colore Bianco, with orchard fruit, melon, crushed pine nut and rosemary essence. The mouthfeel is broad and rich, spreading smoothly over the palate with creamy intensity and more nutty flavors. You wait for it, and there it is: that pretty note of Mediterranean salinity that pegs this wine to its island origins.”

2021 Crios Malbec
Tim Atkin, Tim Atkin, June 2022
“The kind of Malbec that deserves to sell by the containerload, this is a wine that overdelivers at the price. Serious and focused, it resists the temptation to use residual sugar, relying on texture, intensity and plum and blackberry fruit concentration. 2023-28”

2019 Colomé Estate Malbec
Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate, March 2021
“The dark and brooding 2019 Auténtico Malbec had to be harvested quickly because of a heat wave during the harvest. Eighty-five percent of the volume matured in stainless steel and the rest in concrete egg. To be honest, it feels a little flat in the palate and has plenty of notes of ripe black fruit, not as vibrant as some past vintages... 65,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2020.”
