Note di degustazione
The 2017 Le Difese is plump, juicy and inviting, with lovely textural richness and volume. Sweet red cherry, spice, leather, tobacco and menthol are amped up by the natural richness and radiance of the year. This is an especially supple, lush Difese. I would prefer to drink it over the next handful of years.

A fruity, delicious red with currant, plum and berry aromas and flavors and a citrusy, floral undertone. Medium body. Long and caressing. The second wine of Sassicaia. Why wait on this one? Drink now.
The 2017 Le Difese is beautifully radiant in the glass. The warm, dry vintage produced an unusually fleshy, supple Le Difese. Bright red berry fruit, spice and floral notes are all nicely pushed forward. Drink it over the next few years.
First vintage 2002. 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Sangiovese. Sangiovese is bought in. Mid garnet. Dried rosemary and dusty earth tones, with a touch of cigar box. Light red cherry and cassis with a floral tone too. Medium bodied with a savoury, saline thread and fine acidity through the middle, though also with somewhat grainy, moderate tannins. Elegant, but just lacking a bit of fruit density and ripeness – sour red fruit. (TJ)
