Winery

In the Tuscan Maremma, on the stretch of the Etruscan coast that stretches between Livorno and Grosseto, stands Tenuta San Guido, named in honor of St. Guido della Gherardesca, who lived in the 13th century. The Tenuta is an estate of about 2,500 hectares, about 100 of which are planted with vines. The estate was the first to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine as early as the 1940s, thanks to the experiments and vision of its founder, Marchese Mario Incisa della Rocchetta. The choice of this variety and the use of barriques for aging laid the foundation for the "Bolgheri" model. The winery is the only one to have vineyards eligible to claim DOC Bolgheri Sassicaia, a type created as a subzone of DOC Bolgheri back in 1994 and converted to an autonomous DOC in December 2013. The winery's wine par excellence is Sassicaia, whose first vintage on the market dates back to 1968.

Description

Le Difese di Tenuta San Guido è un vino rosso che si caratterizza per la buona struttura e per la sua estrema morbidezza che lo rendono estremamente piacevole e bevibile. Le Difese è un blend di cabernet sauvignon (70%) e sangiovese (30%).

Organoleptic characteristics: 

It has a bouquet of small red fruits, blackberries and cherries with aromas of chocolate. In the mouth it is enveloping, round and full with pleasant delicate tannins.

Storage time: 

5 years

Vinification 

Fermentation takes place in steel vats at controlled temperature with a maceration period of about 12 days both for Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.
