Product description

Le Difese is a blend of approximately 80% Sangiovese and 20% Cabernet Sauvingnon. The grapes are vinified in a new cellar created especially by the Tenuta San Guido in the locality known as 'Vecchio Frantoio" (Old Olive Press) not far the town of Bolgheri.

The fermentation took place in stainless steel temperature controlled vats with a 14 days maceration period for Cabernet Sauvignon and 12 days for Sangiovese. The wine was then aged for 14 months in French and American oak barriques, one-third of these being new ones.

The resulting wine is of an intense ruby red colour. On the nose, the fruits scent is obvious and quite complex. On the palate, the wine shows a very good structure, being at the same time accessible and pleasant.

yr. 2010 Doctorwine:

 

85 of 100 Points.

"Doctorwine" has rated the wine "Tenuta San Guido Le Difese Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy" the vintage 2010 on 16.05.2013 with 85 of 100 points.

"This younger brother of the very famous Sassicaia is a lovely red, easy to drink and not too expensive, considering its pedigree. It is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Sangiovese, a reminder that Bolgheri is always in Tuscany. The ruby color is bright and intense, while the aroma has nice scents of blueberry and blackberry and the flavor is delicate, agile, with a sober elegance that ends in a subtle yet long finish. A wine white meats, great with chicken and peppers or rabbit with olives."

"Leggiadro e composto nel calice evidenzia tratti di frutti rossi a bacca piccola che ricordano i ribes, i lamponi, i mirtilli pressati ed il mirto selvatico. Tante mandorle bianche dominano la scena secondaria fondendosi a sfumature di tiglio ed olive verdi. Corpo medio, tannini leggermente rustici ma ben integrati e maturi ed un finale succoso e brillante. Bellissimo ora sarà meglio dal 2022."

"È intenso ed intrigante il profilo sensoriale di questo giovane rosso dai toni "dark". Si apre dolcemente nelle note di prugne nere, more e cioccolato fondente tritato. Corpo medio-pieno, succoso grazie a tannini dolci ben fusi nella matrice ed un finale di pura bellezza gustativa. Bevi ora."
