2023 Tuscan Red: Tenuta San Guido Le Difese Blend

Le Difese Bolgheri Red Wine – A Harmonious Tuscan Blend of Cabernet & Sangiovese

Discover Le Difese, the vibrant expression of Bolgheri’s iconic winemaking, where Cabernet Sauvignon meets Tuscan Sangiovese in a perfectly balanced red. Crafted for both casual sipping and elegant dinners, this wine delivers a seamless harmony of structure, freshness, and approachability—ideal for wine lovers seeking a versatile Italian red.

Sourced from the sun-drenched, gravelly slopes of Bolgheri, Tuscany, the grapes undergo gentle fermentation in stainless steel and brief aging in neutral oak, preserving their bright fruit character while softening the tannins. This family-led, terroir-driven winemaking approach ensures a pure, food-friendly wine with minimal intervention—no fining and light filtration for authenticity.

Tasting Notes & Pairings:
A deep ruby hue introduces aromas of ripe cherry, blackcurrant, and subtle herbal notes, leading to a silky yet structured palate with a refreshing finish. Perfect with grilled meats, mushroom risotto, rich pasta dishes, or even hearty vegetarian fare like stuffed peppers.

With 13.5% alcohol, Le Difese strikes the right balance—bold enough to stand out yet smooth enough for everyday enjoyment. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or unwinding after work, this affordable luxury from San Guido’s estate brings a taste of Tuscan excellence to your glass.

A true crowd-pleaser—elegant, versatile, and distinctly Italian.
