A great Bordeaux blend born in the unique soils of Bibbona, where marine influences meet mineral-rich soils. With extraordinary aromatic complexity and a tannic structure of rare elegance, this wine perfectly embodies the style of a true premium 'Super Tuscan', destined to withstand the test of time and deliver unforgettable emotions to collectors and the most demanding connoisseurs.

Why the Winemaker Recommends Biserno IGT

The winemaker suggests this specific vintage as it represents the perfect synthesis of excellent raw materials and a millimetric vinification protocol. The fresh and selected grapes, coming from the estate's most suited areas, are processed in temperature-controlled vats. This technical choice allows the elimination of less noble fractions, preserving the most volatile floral and fruity aromas. The final result guarantees superb aromatic stability and a unique structural softness. According to the winemaker's indications, this product demonstrates how the longevity of a great red can combine with extraordinary gustatory harmony. Every phase of the production process aims to safeguard the integrity of the original fruit, offering an elegant, clean sip free of any pungent alcoholic aggression.

Characteristics of Biserno Tuscany Red Wine

This refined blend expresses the quintessence of the coastal Tuscan territory in the glass, elevating varietal traits to a superior level of clarity. The stylistic architecture of this Bordeaux blend is founded on a predominance of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, grown in historic vineyards exposed to sea breezes. Every element concurs to define a clean profile of unquestionable quality consistency, ideal for studying through a detailed tasting.

• Alcohol Content and Blend: 14.50% Vol. / Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot.
• Visual Examination: Deep ruby red color, almost impenetrable, with intense garnet reflections that anticipate its extraordinary and dense consistency in the glass.
• Olfactory Profile: A deep, intense, and continuously evolving bouquet. Intense notes of black fruits in alcohol, cassis, and morello cherry stand out on the nose, embellished by elegant tertiary hints of graphite, dark chocolate, liquorice, and sweet spices.
• Palate: Endowed with a sumptuous, full, and enveloping structure, it delivers an entry into the mouth of total cleanliness and volume. The palatal progression reveals a dense, silky, and perfectly fused tannic texture, wonderfully supported by a balsamic freshness that grants a virtually infinite persistence. The sip develops austere and persuasive, guiding the tasting towards a refined fruity persistence in the finish and a clean retro-olfactory closure.

Pairings and Service

The aromatic nature of this selection requires accurate gastronomic pairings, capable of dialoguing with the fineness of the sensory profile.

• Meat-Based Gastronomy: Pairs magnificently with classic heifer Florentine steak, beef fillet in a herb crust with a truffle reduction, grilled ribeyes, stewed wild boar, loin of venison with juniper, hare in salmì, pappardelle with pigeon sauce, or baked lasagna with wild game ragù. Also excellent with extra-aged Tuscan pecorino cheese.
• Signature Pairings: For an original and fascinating contrast, try it together with intense blue cheeses like Roquefort or Parmigiano Reggiano aged over 36 months. If you are instead looking for the freshness and softness of a different blend from the same company for your convivial meals, we suggest discovering the complexity of this line by trying the Tuscan estates wine, an ideal alternative for the table. This brand represents a true point of reference for modern catering.
• Service Conditions: The wine expresses its maximum potential at a service temperature of 16 - 18°C to facilitate the development of the olfactory range and the relaxation of the tannins. It is highly recommended to uncork the bottle at least two hours before consumption or to use a wide-necked decanter.

The Elite Terroir of the Bolgheri Area and the Antinori Signature

The estate, located in the prestigious district of the coastal Upper Maremma, benefits from extraordinary soil and climate conditions, where alluvial soils rich in conglomerate and pebbles combine with the natural ventilation of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Under the forward-thinking guidance of Lodovico Antinori, the production of this iconic blend follows strict micro-parcel standards to guarantee maximum extractive finesse and balance of the Bordeaux grape varieties.
