‘Le Difese’ by Tenuta San Guido is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese, varieties cultivated on soils with diverse morphological characteristics partially clay-based and rich in limestone, galestro (marl), and stones. The vines, situated at altitudes between 100 and 300 meters above sea level, benefit from an excellent southern and south westerly exposure. Harvest is carried out by hand, with careful selection of the bunches, beginning with the Cabernet Sauvignon and concluding with the Sangiovese. In the cellar, following a second sorting, the grapes undergo gentle crushing and destemming, succeeded by temperature controlled alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This includes 14–18 days of maceration on the skins, as well as the complete process of malolactic fermentation. The subsequent aging period, lasting nearly a year, takes place in French oak barriques previously used for the maturation of ‘Sassicaia’ and ‘Guidalberto’.
The ‘Le Difese’ Supertuscan by Tenuta San Guido presents an intense ruby red color. On the nose, it offers fruity notes of blackberry and cherry, which meld with hints of chocolate and aromatic herbs. The palate is round, full bodied, and fresh, characterized by a smooth tannic structure and a delicate, savory finish. It is a highly versatile Tuscan red wine.
