ColleMezzano is one of the most expressive and identity-defining labels of Tenuta di Biserno. It originates from an estate that became part of the Tenuta in 2019 where international grape varieties had already been planted in the early 1990s.
The wine comes from plots located in the area of the same name about 10 km north of Bibbona characterized by ideal exposures and soils rich in clay and minerals.Â
ColleMezzano is a wine of great elegan- ce and delicacy fully reflecting the estate’s winemaking philosophy: precision depth and loyalty to the land.
