Tasting notes

Terre, a Bordeaux blend like San Leonardo and from the same terroir, follows in the footsteps of its “elder brother,” as the winery desfribes it, here with remarkable crispness and enviable balance.

A blend of 50% Cabernet, 40% Merlot and 10% Carmenere and aged in 80% concrete vats and 20% in French oak, it is wine that is easy to love.

“A lightly herbal red with impressions of dried hay, redcurrants and cranberry pie. Light to medium body, fine yet firm tannins and a medium finish. Drink now.” 91/100, James Suckling, Nov 2019

The producer

Tenuta San Leonardo Borghetto all'Adige, Italy

Tenuta San Leonardo sits in the far northeast corner of Italy, in Borghetto all'Adige in Trentino, where the Alps shelter the valley floor and create the extraordinary conditions for a Bordeaux-style blend that would be unimaginable anywhere else in Italy.

The estate has been in the Guerrieri Gonzaga family since the 18th century. Their flagship San Leonardo — a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère and Merlot — is one of Italy's most acclaimed reds: consistently rated in the mid-to-upper 90s by the world's leading critics, and compared in style to the great châteaux of Pauillac.
