2023 Tenuta San Guido Le Difese

Slurp Wines NR

Tenuta San Guido is home to Sassicaia, the wine that pretty much started the 'Super Tuscan' craze. Le Difese is the estate's most affordable red, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese, and it gives you a real taste of the house style for a fraction of the price. Blackcurrant, cherry and a whiff of Mediterranean herbs, with smooth tannins and a fresh, juicy finish. It's great now with pasta al ragù or a grilled steak, and it'll keep improving for a few years if you can hold off. [Slurp Wines, 28/09/2026]
