The entry-level 2007 Le Difese is one of the finest values in Tuscany. I can’t think of too many wines that deliver this level of quality for the money. A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Sangiovese, the wine reveals gorgeous purity in its sweet, perfumed fruit. This is an especially opulent, generous Le Difese that is simply delicious. I suppose the tannins could use a touch more polish, but that is splitting hairs at this level. The wine delivers incredible pleasure and even better, happens to be a great value. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2014. This is a superb set of releases from Tenuta San Guido, the estate that put Maremma on the map as a terroir for world-class wine.
