The most approachable wine from the estate. Tenuta San Guido crafted Le Difese as an approachable and attractively-priced wine for everyday enjoyment.
“As ever, it is with excitement that we discover the new vintage of Le Difese, giving us the tempo for the imminent release of Guidalberto next month and Sassicaia next year. And where to start with 2023... Race, precision and focus define the nose of this ever-growing wine in term of quality and value. A long-time favourite of our team and our restaurant customers, Le Difese 2023 is open, pure and elegant. Superb minerality, crunchy fruit and a floral character characterises the nose while the palate is fresh and tense, racy and lithe. With this type of freshness, it is very difficult to imagine that the wine comes from the Mediterranean climate. Achieving such elegance and finesse is a testament to the skill and precision of the winemaking team under the guidance of Carlo Paoli. Under his tenure in less than 20 years, Tenuta San Guido reveals a completely new dynamic and the pedigree of the wines produced vintage after vintage has never been so high.”
