    The small, 80-year-old vineyard of Pietrabona on the island of Giglio produces an Ansonica of outstanding quality, and so Bibi Graetz decided to vinify the grapes separately in small batches. The vines stand on a bed of rocks and granite sand less than 50 metres from the sea, resulting in a wine with a subtle aroma of ripe oranges, fine spice, flint and minerality. SUPERIORE.DE

    "Bright straw yellow with white-golden reflections. More brooding and slightly deeper than the Testamatta and restrained due to complex, muted oak. Multi-layered and opening up in the glass. It opens up very slowly on the palate. The ripe acidity comes almost as an afterthought and then wires the long finish. Superfine texture." Jancis Robinson

    "The 2022 vintage is the third year in a row of consistent summer heat, but the island microclimate benefits from breezes that keep things from heating up too much. In fact, temperatures here remain quite stable which helps because there is very little rainfall. This wine has a direct and vertical character with pretty richness. It offers tropical tones of papaya, gooseberry and green melon with salted caramel and spicy saffron." Wine Advocate

    "Intense aromas of lime zest and other citrus fruits. Also some apricot. Crushed stone. Sea breeze and crushed sea salt. Full-bodied with a firm and intense texture that is so long and flavourful. It lasts for minutes. Beautiful bitter notes of dried lemon and apricot. Botanical notes. Slight bite adds to the complexity." James Suckling
