Description

Based in Tuscany, Italy.

Tenuta San Guido is a famous winery from Bolgheri in Tuscany. They started planting Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc in the 1940s already, making them one of the first producers to experiment with French varieties in the region. Today, Tenuta San Guido is best-known for their Bordeaux-style blends, i.e. Super Tuscans, including Sassicaia (Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc) and Guidalberto (Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot). They introduced Le Difese a little later, for which they blend Cabernet Sauvignon with Sangiovese to perhaps better reflect the original character of Tuscan wines.
