Insoglio del Cinghiale is the foundation wine for estate Tenuta di Biserno . The majority of the vineyards are located in a different location called Campo di Sasso, just further down the hill from Tenuta di Biserno . A supple and early maturing wine, Insoglio is a distinctive and distinguished introduction to our project.
33% Syrah, 33% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot
40% of the wine was aged for 4 months in second-use French oak barrels.
The 2019 weather brought regular spring with a nice warm summer and nice cool nights similar to 2016. 40% of the wine was aged for 4 months in second-use French oak barrels. This is a great vintage – very balanced, elegant , yet rich and complex.
Insoglio has a medium intense nose of dark fruits, blackberries, some floral notes and a hint of spicy oak in the background. A light to medium rich body with a fine structure and balance. The wine will gain in balance and complexity as I further ages in bottle.
Pair with roast meats, particularly beef, whether it be filet de sirloin or Tuscan T-Bone.
