San Leonardo Vigneti delle Dolomiti igt Tenuta San Leonardo 2014

San Leonardo by Tenuta San Leonardo is an elegant red wine resulting from the merging of three different varieties: Carmenere, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. It has a great ageing potential and an extraordinary ruby red colour with garnet shades. The bouquet is intense and complex, with elegant scents of mixed berries, currant, dark cherry, plums, vanilla, tobacco and cloves. It is well-structured and balanced and the scents perceived into the bouquet are recalled while tasting it. Tannins are elegant and soft, the aromatic persistence is long-lasting. We recommend San Leonardo by Tenuta San Leonardo with game, red meat, matured cheese and roasts.

The cave was established in 1724 in the place where there was a monastery, and starting from that moment it always belongs to the same family. Today the Marquise Carlo Guerrieri of Gonzaga manages this winery, situated in the south of the Trentino and it includes 25 hectares of vineyards, that go back up the end of 1800, when the Gonzaga aimed for a wines’ production, that was different from the other wine for its refinement. The typical wines of the cave are the Merlot, the Sauvignon, the Chardonnay and the black and grey Pinot.
