Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: From the Campo di Sasso vineyard in Bibbona (the village adjacent to Bolgheri along the Tuscan coast), the Tenuta di Biserno 2019 Insoglio del Cinghiale is an easy blend of Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot that undergoes winemaking mostly in stainless steel with some brief oak. It opens to a bright ruby color and offers dried raspberry, cherry and wild plum. This wine is all about primary fruit intensity, and if fruity freshness is what you're looking for, you get it here in spades. However with time, a hint of musky animal or leather does also appear, and a near-term drinking window is a safe bet. Pair this simple Tuscan red with a wood oven pizza margherita.

• Wine Spectator: Bright cherry, raspberry and floral flavors mark this succulent red. It's lively and firm, finishing with a hint of wild scrub and black pepper. Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

Producer Information

The land was initially to be incorporated into the Ornellaia holdings, but Antinori decided that the terroir was so different that the site should become its own project. Now, Tenuta di Biserno produces a colection of its own Super Tuscan wines under the IGT Toscana designation.The vineyard is located in the Alta Maremma region close to the coast, where there are cooling influences from the Mediterranean sea. The free-draining soil here is mainly alluvial, made up of limestone and calcium carbonate.
