Wine Reviews

Intense aromas of graphite, cassis, bell pepper and toasty oak mark this flamboyant red. There are concentrated dark berry flavors, plus iron and green olive tapenade, all wrapped in an embrace of vanilla and oak spice notes. Supple yet well-structured and fresh on the finish.

This is ripe, offering plum, blackberry, black cherry, coconut and mineral flavors, yet remains fresh and focused. Shows fine balance among its components, and the long, spicy aftertaste completes the profile.

The Tenuta di Biserno 2022 Biserno, a dark and rich blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, reveals layered aromas of dark fruit, sweet spice and campfire ember. A bright note of candied orange adds multidimensionality and a touch of extra sweetness, lifting the overall profile. Fermented in steel and aged for 15 months in mostly new French barriques, the wine reflects a hot vintage yet avoids feeling weighed down, finishing with soft, sweet tannins and a polished texture.

Classy wine with vibrant balsamic aromas of cedar wood, dried eucalyptus leaves, restrained cassis, minty and bergamot depth. Bark, licorice, Mediterranean whiffs. Full-bodied, elegant tannins soaked in spices with refreshing acidity and a balsamic aftertaste. Very classic. Youthful yet so balanced to be drinkable. Drink or hold.

Intensity and elegance dominate in this wine. The nose shows aromatic herbs, eucalyptus, bramble fruit and sweet spices. Full-bodied, it has firm, velvety tannins, refreshing acidity, a slightly chalky finish and a long, savory aftertaste.
