Tenuta San Guido Le Difese 2024 is a red wine from the prestigious Bolgheri region of Tuscany, Italy. It features a complex flavor profile with notes of dark fruit, spice, and subtle earthy undertones, characteristic of a well-balanced blend of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
This wine pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, including grilled meats, pasta with rich sauces, and aged cheeses. It is best enjoyed slightly chilled and can be laid down for a few years for enhanced complexity.
"The 2024 Le Difese, composed of 70% Sangiovese sourced from Montespertoli and Radda in Chianti with the balance Cabernet Sauvignon, pours a bright ruby hue and is floral and lifted with aromas of fresh cherry, pomegranate, citrus, and sweet herbs. Lean to medium-bodied, it shows vibrant acidity, vertical graphite notes, and a stony texture. It was aged in barrique followed by stainless steel aging to preserve its freshness and clarity. Reflective of the vintage, this is a charming and bright wine to drink over the near term."
