Tuscany, Italy
In 1964, while looking for additional land to expand his Tenuta dell’Ornellaia vineyard, Marchese Lodovico Antinori discovered & acquired property of Tenuta di Biserno near Bibbona. A blend of Merlot, Cab Sauv, Petit Verdot and Cab Franc & aged for 12 months in French oak, concentrated aromas of ripe currants and sweet spice. On the palate currant and black fruit flavors, elegant fine tannins with cacao and tobacco tones. Lingering ending with an earthy character. Very nice. Tasting Sample.
