Tenuta di Biserno is the latest project from Lodovico Antinori and the first ever with the involvement of his brother Piero. Biserno is located in western Tuscany along the coastal area of the Upper Maremma. The estate lies among the hills of Bibbona, which borders the DOC of Bolgheri. Lodovico describes the vineyards of Bibbona and Bolgheri meeting each other, as “very similar to Saint Emilion and Pomerol.” The 2010 Biserno is an absolutely magnificent wine, offering seductive aromas of dark currants, ripe blackberries, tar, toasted hazelnut, minerals and spring florals. This outstanding blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot impresses with its structure, beautiful polished texture as well as amazing depth and focus. The finish is long and supple leaving behind another layer of gorgeous dark fruits lingering. This is showing incredible today and won’t require much additional time, however there is great ageing potential here as well. (Best 2014-2030) - August, 2014 (JD)
