Campo di Sasso - Insoglio del Cinghiale Toscana IGT 2023

Marchese Lodovico Antinori discovered the property of Tenuta di Biserno near Bibbona, in the Alta Maremma area of Tuscany, in 1994, while looking for additional land to expand his Tenuta dell’Ornellaia vineyard. Given its proximity to Bolgheri, it is not surprising he was at first struck by the similarity in terroir. What he found in Bibbona, however, had so much potential, he was inspired to develop a quite different plan. With more hills and stones than nearby Bolgheri, this land appeared to be ideally suited to produce a new and different wine. In 2001 Lodovico and his brother, Piero, established Tenuta di Biserno as an elite wine estate.

Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc. Aged for 7 months partly in steel and partly in wood.

“The historic label from the Tenuta di Biserno group, the Campo di Sasso 2023 Insoglio del Cinghiale has a balanced bouquet of dark fruit that cedes to savory spice and sweet tobacco. The wine is well made and is very satisfying, especially if you are in the search for a more accessible and well-priced Bordeaux-inspired red from sunny Tuscany. The fruit is black and ripe, with baked plum and blackberry. The blend is Syrah, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.” - 91 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“A sleek red highlighted by blackberry, black cherry and violet flavors, with hints of iron and black olive tapenade lingering on the dusty finish. Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2028. 300,000 cases made.” - 90 Points, Wine Spectator
