Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Notes of red cherries with some underlying oak adding spice and complexity. The palate is elegant and harmonious with fine, rounded tannins and a long polished finish.

Pair with roast meats, particularly beef, whether it be filet de sirloin or Tuscan T-Bone.

    Intense aromas and flavors of black currant, green olive, cedar, tobacco and mineral mark this elegant, fluid red. Firms up, with well-appointed tannins marking the long finish. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2019 through 2030.

    A wine with layers of ripe tannins and pretty fruit here. Medium body, fine texture and a delicious finish. Plenty of currant, mint and light wet earth. Excellent for the vintage. Drink now or hold.

    For three decades, I have observed and generally enjoyed the development of "Super Tuscans," or Toscana Rosso IGT. They have sometimes been too oaky and often too tannic. The superbly stylish 2014 Tenuta di Biserno Il Pino is quite refined. The wine shows excellent and persistent black fruit aromas and flavors. Its almost exotic notes and sweet tannins make it a good wine to serve with a medium-rare prime rib. (Tasted: June 28, 2017, San Francisco, CA)

    Il Pino comes from Biserno's younger vines and spends about one year in new and second-passage barriques. It smells of violets and fresh thyme, notes that are mirrored on the palate and mingle with the dark berry flavors. Hints of green olive, black tea and tobacco emerge toward the finish.

    The cool 2014 vintage was one 'which I try to forget,' according to Niccolò Marzichi Lenzi. But in this vintage Pino is at the same level as Biserno - if not better. Here the Merlot rises to 42% of the blend, supported by 38% Cabernet Franc and the remainder Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Silky and leaner on the crisp palate, this is clearly evolved due to the leaner vintage, showing a precise nose of cedar and cassis, with earthy tones, milk chocolate and slightly austere tannins at the end.

Tenuta di Biserno   Winery Video
Marchese Lodovico Antinori discovered the property of Tenuta di Biserno near Bibbona, in the Alta Maremma area of Tuscany, in 1994, while looking for additional land to expand his Tenuta dell’Ornellaia vineyard. Given its proximity to Bolgheri, it is not surprising he was at first struck by the similarity in terroir. What he found in Bibbona, however, had so much potential, he was inspired to develop a quite different plan. With more hills and stones than nearby Bolgheri, this land appeared to be ideally suited to produce a new and different wine. In 2001 Lodovico and his brother, Piero, established Tenuta di Biserno as an elite wine estate.

"One of the big developments is the release of two vintages of a new wine from Tenuta di Biserno. Biserno is the new family-owned winery of brothers Piero and Lodovico Antinori, located just outside the appellation of Bolgheri… I find the style of the property's wines already to be a fascinating combination of Ornellaia's and Sassicaia's, emphasizing the generosity of the former and the firmness and backbone of the latter."

Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.

A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
