Tenuta San Guido "La Difese" 2022

Le Difese takes its name from the teeth of the wild boar, depicted in gold on the label. First vintaged in 2002, it is the latest from Tenuta San Guido. The presence of Sangiovese, which determines its character, gives the wine a clear personality with a strong Tuscan backbone. It is an extremely pleasant, smooth, and versatile wine that welcomes with grace, the selection of grapes while it exemplifies its qualities when paired with food. Tasting Note: Le Difese 2022 shows a beautiful intensity of fruit, softness, and pleasantness of well-integrated tannins. Marked aromaticity with hints of fresh berries, beautiful complexity on the nose in terms of aromas, very intense. Good freshness and perfect balanced tannins, supported by a non-invasive structure, which wraps well on the palate making the wine pleasant and easy to drink. 92 Points - Decanter & Vinous 91 Points - James Suckling
