Le Difese 2011 is the estate’s approachable, early-drinking blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. The wine offers aromas of ripe black cherry, cassis, and subtle tobacco, layered with hints of cedar and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it is smooth and medium-bodied, with supple tannins and balanced acidity supporting flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of earth. The finish is fresh and persistent, making it both food-friendly and immediately enjoyable while still reflecting Tenuta San Guido’s refined style.

Tenuta San Guido, located in Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast, is one of Italy’s most iconic estates, best known for creating the legendary Sassicaia. Founded by Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, the estate transformed the perception of Italian wine with its Bordeaux-inspired blends. Today, it continues to be a benchmark for quality and elegance in the Super Tuscan category, producing wines that marry structure with coastal freshness.
