Tenuta Di Biserno Insoglio
Vintage: | 2019 |
---|---|
Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\nInsoglio has a medium intense nose of dark fruits, blackberries, some floral notes and a hint of spicy oak in the background. A light to medium rich body with a fine structure and balance. The wine will gain in balance and complexity with further aging in the bottle.\r\nFood Pairing - game dishes, roast pheasant or rich game stews. Slightly chilled, it is equally good in summer with picnics and barbecues.\r\nJames Suckling 93 Points \r\nRobert Parker 91 Points \r\nWine Enthusiast 91 Points\r\nBlend -\u00a0 Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot\r\nAbout Tenuta Di BISERNO\r\n\r\nMarchese Lodovico Antinori, creator of two of Italy's most famed wines, Ornellaia and Masseto, conceived of his new project with these benchmarks in mind.\u00a0 He discovered the special Tenuta di Biserno terroir, situated in the Upper Maremma, with his long-time friend and wine adviser, Michel Rolland.\u00a0 He is joined by his brother, Marchese Piero Antinori, President of world renowned Antinori Wines.\r\n\r\n\r\nA Perfect TERROIR\r\nOn Upper Maremma's famous coast, Tenuta di Biserno lies among the hills of the village Bibbona, bordering the famed Bolgheri DOC.\u00a0 Representing some of Italy's most prized terroir, Upper Maremma combines unique soil compisition with the cooling influence of the Tyrrhenian Sea.\u00a0 The vineyards of Bibbona and Bolgheri meet each other, as Lodovico observes, \u201cvery similar to Saint Emilion and Pomerol.\u201d\r\nLodovico learned about this parcel of land from Dante Scanavino, his then-General Manager at Ornellaia. Lodovico surveyed the land and was struck by the similarities between this terroir and that of Masseto. But beyond that, what Lodovico recognized here were other elements in the soil that immediately inspired him to plant Cabernet Franc. |
