Le Difese by Tenuta San Guido is one of Tuscany’s most popular and accessible fine wines, offering a perfect introduction to this legendary estate. Produced by the makers of Sassicaia, Le Difese combines Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese to create a wine that balances structure, freshness, and approachability.
First released in 2002, Le Difese is crafted to be enjoyed younger than its prestigious siblings, while still showcasing the unmistakable quality and style associated with Tenuta San Guido. The Cabernet Sauvignon brings depth, dark fruit, and gentle spice, while the Sangiovese adds brightness, acidity, and classic Italian character.
Across different vintages, Le Difese remains consistent in style, medium-bodied, fruit-forward, and versatile with food. It pairs particularly well with grilled meats, pasta dishes, and aged cheeses, making it a favourite among both collectors and everyday wine drinkers.
