Le Difese 2013 blends Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese to offer an approachable yet refined expression of Tenuta San Guido’s style. The nose opens with ripe cherry, blackberry, and cassis, accented by hints of violet, Mediterranean herbs, and soft spice. Medium-bodied on the palate, it delivers supple tannins and bright acidity, with flavors of dark berries, tobacco, and a touch of earthiness. The finish is fresh and balanced, making it ideal for early enjoyment while retaining the estate’s signature finesse.

Tenuta San Guido, the legendary Bolgheri estate behind Sassicaia, pioneered the Super Tuscan movement and set a new standard for Italian fine wine. Founded by Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, the winery combines Bordeaux-inspired varietals with Tuscan terroir, creating wines of elegance, longevity, and distinct coastal character. Today, it remains one of Italy’s most revered producers, crafting wines that express both heritage and innovation.
