Description
One family: Antinori, one passion: Wine. Brothers Piero and Lodovico Antinori are the owners of the beautiful Tenuta di Biserna in Tocane. According to Parker: "Tenuta di Biserno remains one of the best kept secrets in Bolgheri". The Biserno is named after the winery because the wine reflects the terroir and microclimate of the area around the winery. A nice way to name your wine. Only the best grapes are selected for the blend, resulting in a wine of depth, intensity, complexity, longevity and elegance.
The flagship Tenuta di Biserno Biserno is a rich, beautiful and brooding wine. The Biserno is deep ruby red in the glass and there is so much life and intensity in this 2020 vintage which is packed with black fruit, spice, tar and sweet tobacco. The aromas are presented with seamless transitions and the finish is exceptionally long. This wine shows maturity but also offers elegance, and that makes the difference between good and great. This wine will improve even further with time in the cellar and has beautiful aging potential of 20 years plus. This version is a magnum in an original wooden box (OWC)

1. Grilled entrecote with rosemary, black pepper and grilled peppers
The juicy, fatty meat softens the firm tannins and brings out the dark fruit, while the herbs and paprika enhance the spicy profile.
2. Ravioli filled with mushrooms and truffle, served with sage butter
The earthy notes of mushroom and truffle complement the wine's deep complexity, while the buttery sauce emphasises the velvety texture.
3. Leg of lamb with garlic, thyme and roasted aubergine
The spicy lamb reflects the Mediterranean herb aromas in the wine, while eggplant and garlic deepen the mouthfeel.
4. Beef stew with red wine, carrot and bay leaf
Slow-cooked meat and aromatic spices complement the ripe, spicy structure of the wine and create a harmonious balance.
5. Baked sweetbreads with roasted fennel and beurre rouge
The soft texture of the sweetbreads mirrors the mouthfeel of the wine. The fennel and wine sauce enhance the spiciness and refined acidity.
6. Venison fillet with cherry sauce, parsnip cream and juniper berries
The powerful flavour of game matches the intensity of the wine, while cherry and spices accentuate the fruity and spicy profile.

The 2020 Biserno is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and a small part Petit Verdot. This is an enriched and profound wine with round tones of black fruit, spice, cured tobacco and tarry smoke. Biserno is shapely and generous with a full-bodied approach that is accented by crushed stone and pencil shaving. You get a lot of intensity and texture with this opulent, cellar-worthy wine.

From: Tuscany: New Releases from the Coast (Jul 2022)
The 2019 Biserno is a gorgeous, elegant wine that captures the essence of the house style today. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, espresso, licorice and incense are all laced together. The 2019 is deep and fleshy yet also retains mid-weight structure and terrific energy. It's one of the most elegant wines I have tasted here.
- By Antonio Galloni on July 2022
Lodovico Antinori’s new releases are terrific. They show a move towards a slightly more understated style than in the past, as is common at many properties in Maremma. The wines are still quite opulent and generous, but without the heaviness that marked some previous releases. I find the wines compelling and delicious.

In 1995, Lodovico Antinori discovered the potential of an area on the outskirts of Bolgheri for viticulture. After an evaluation, he saw the unique characteristics of this area and was convinced that he could create something new and unique in the wine world. A few years later, the Antinori family (Piero, Lodovico, Ilaria and his son Niccolò) and landowner Umberto Mannoni started founding Tenuta di Biserno. Adjacent to the historic village of Bolgheri, with a beautiful view of the Tyrrhenian sea.
The Tuscan winery has 49 hectares of estate and is located in Alta Maremma in western Tuscany between the hills of Bibbona. Due to the specific soil and climate characteristics, the area is divided into two zones. The Bolgheri area has a subsoil of rock; on these 40 hectares, the vines for Biserno and Il Pino di Biserno are planted. The vines planted on the vineyards are mainly Cabernet Franc and Merlot and in smaller quantities Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Tenuta Campo di Sasso, on the other hand, has 56 hectares with mixed (and mainly) sandy soils. This area is close to the sea and is therefore very suitable for varieties such as Syrah and Vermentino. Occhione and Insoglio del Cinghiale come from this area.
