98 James Suckling
Sophisticated aromas of blackcurrants and blueberries with fresh herbs, such as fresh sage and rosemary. Graceful and complex. Full-bodied with very fine, driven tannins that are sleek and polished. The palate goes on for minutes. 32% cabernet franc, 32% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot and 6% petit verdot. Already beautiful, but in two or four years it will be poetry. Drink or hold.
97 Robert Parker
Showing inky dark concentration, the flagship Tenuta di Biserno 2019 Biserno is a rich, beautiful and brooding wine. There is so much life and intensity in this vintage that is packed tight with black fruit, spice, tar and sweet tobacco. The aromas are presented with seamless transitions, and the finish is exceptionally long. This wine shows ripeness, but it also offers elegance, and that’s not an easy overlap to make. This wine should hold past the 20-year mark.

Tenuta di Biserno
Lodovico Antinori is the brilliant force behind these two estates, Tenuta di Biserno and Campo di Sasso. The wines coming from these properties have been built on Lodovico’s ability to foresee a terroir’s true potential. Focus and determination has led to the production of his unrivaled wines. Amongst the sloping hills of Bibbona, Tenuta di Biserno lies in Alta Maremma, bordering the historic village of Bolgheri. The nearly 50-hectare estate was discovered in 1995 when Lodovico was searching to expand the already notable Ornellaia property. Due to its distinctive terroir, much hillier and stonier than Ornellaia, Lodovico declared this plot be used for its very own project. Joining forces with brother, Marchese Piero Antinori and landowner Umberto Mannoni – the Biserno estate came to life. Their flagship, eponymously labeled Biserno is a thoughtful blend of Cabernet Franc with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. While the property also produces a second wine, Il Pino di Biserno and a super cuvée named after Lodovico himself, which is made from an individual plot of vines ensuring its unique character and personality.
