Le Difese Toscana 2022 Vintage Overview

2022 OVERVIEW

Silky red and black fruits drive Tenuta San Guido’s 2022 Le Difese, with raspberry, cherry and redcurrant layered over hints of violet, cedar, spice and a touch of citrus lift. Medium-bodied and finely structured, it shows crisp acidity, polished tannins and a vibrant, moreish finish that reflects the warmth and charm of the vintage while staying wonderfully drinkable.

About Le Difese Toscana

Le Difese is Tenuta San Guido’s most approachable red, a supple Toscana IGT that marries Cabernet Sauvignon from the Bolgheri estate with Sangiovese sourced from trusted Chianti partners to give a distinctly Tuscan accent. Typically aged about a year in a mix of French and American oak, it delivers bright cherry and berry fruit, gentle spice and silky tannins, offering an easy, early‑drinking gateway into the world of Sassicaia and this historic coastal estate.
