Tenuta di Biserno Biserno 2017 combines the power of the Bolgheri terroir with the fine, almost silky structure of a top-quality Tuscan grape. The Tenuta di Biserno winery, a boutique address near Bibbona, focuses on selective harvesting, low yields, and careful aging in wood. The 2017 vintage brought warm temperatures and clear nights, which favored ripe fruit, fresh acidity, and elegant tannins. The winemaker emphasizes a compact, focused blend that reflects the character of the coastal climate without losing any of its finesse. The result is a wine of impressive presence, promising even in its youth, but which will gain in expression and depth over time.
Tasting Note: In the glass, the 2017 Biserno presents a rich ruby color with garnet reflections. The nose opens with dark forest berries, plum, cedarwood, and delicate spicy notes, while the palate reveals a powerful yet refined structure: ripe fruit, well-integrated oak, supple tannins, and lively acidity that lends length and freshness. The finish is long and elegant, with a mineral note that makes the wine a true delight. Drinking Maturity: The wine is accessible now, yet shows potential for development until approximately 2035, although storage conditions play a crucial role. Food Pairing: Grilled ribeye, ossobuco, or lamb chops with rosemary – ideally complemented by robust cheeses like Pecorino Toscano.
