Biserno 2018

di Biserno

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 97.0

The Biserno Toscana Rosso IGT is the flagship wine for Tenuta Biserno and a sensational red terroir wine from Maremma. In the glass the Biserno shines intensely dark red, on the nose opens a dense, complex bouquet with aromas of red and dark fruits, cherry, blackberry and dark plum. Spicy notes, freshly ground coffee and tobacco underline the fruity character.

On the palate, the Biserno is incredibly elegant. Balanced, gentle, present tannins and a flavourful variety reveal themselves, which lend depth to this great cuvée. The finale is endlessly long, soft and sustainable.

Very subtle aromas of blackberries, black olives, tobacco, cedar and wet earth. Wild mushrooms, such as oyster mushrooms. Full-bodied with firm, very silky tannins and succulent fruit. Extremely refined and balanced with a long, racy finish. Great complexity. What 2017 had in concentration, this has in elegance and complexity. Wonderful length. A blend of 28% cabernet franc, 35% cabernet sauvignon and 32% merlot, the rest petit verdot. Try after 2025, but already an impressive young wine.

The 2018 Biserno is a beast of a wine (packaged in a heavy glass bottle) that fills the room with its perfumes as you pour the wine into your glass. The bouquet is thickly layered and rich with potent notes of ripe blackberry and blackish plum followed by bakers chocolate, spice and dark mahogany or cigar box. Excellent work has been achieved to tame the tannins, and the wine offers a long, polished feel and an impactful, full-bodied presence. The blend of fruit used here (from a seven-hectare parcel) is 28% Cabernet Franc, 32% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. Production is 30,000 bottles.
