Description
Biserno is the iconic wine of Tenuta di Biserno, the ultimate representation of the expressive potential of the Bibbona vineyards. This Toscana Rosso comes from a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and a small percentage of Petit Verdot, cultivated on soils that are partly clayey and partly composed of Bolgheri conglomerate.
The grapes are hand-selected on a vibrating belt and vinified separately in steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation and maceration occur over 3-4 weeks at controlled temperatures. Malolactic fermentation takes place partially in barriques and in steel. The wine then ages for 15 months in French oak barriques, 70% new and 30% second passage, before the final assemblage and bottling.
In the glass, it presents a deep, intense ruby red. The bouquet is complex and elegant, with notes of ripe wild berries, aromatic herbs, sweet spices, and toasted nuances. On the palate, it is full, velvety, and enveloping, with soft tannins, balanced freshness, and a harmonious structure that imparts great aging potential.
Perfectly paired with braised dishes, stews, or slow-cooked red meats.
