San Leonardo Red 2019
From Tenuta San Leonardo in Trentino, the San Leonardo Red 2019 is a refined Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, and Merlot from clay-limestone soils near the Dolomites. Hand-harvested from organic vineyards, it’s aged 24 months in French oak barrels, offering a deep ruby hue with vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A complex, elegant red with rich fruit and savory finesse, showcasing Trentino’s terroir.
The nose reveals red currants, blackcurrants, and leather, with hints of graphite and mentholated herbs. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and silky, with vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins, and flavors of dark cherry, spice, and a long, savory finish.
