Note di degustazione
Tenuta San Guido is on a roll these days. Over the last few years, the estate has released a number of hugely delicious wines. These new releases are nicely aligned with their respective vintages. The entry-level Le Difese and Guidalberto both capture the essence of a sunny year that made wines well suited to near-term drinking, while the 2008 Sassicaia captures the potential of a powerful vintage characterized by low yields and a late harvest. The 2009 Le Difese is a gorgeous, radiant wine brimming with dark red fruit. Sweet spices, leather and licorice come together beautifully in this exotic, generous red. Hints of mocha and espresso beans add complexity on the round, silky finish.
