ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The rich history of the property dates back 1500 years to when a group of prisoners from Trentino, captured by the Frankish army, erected a chapel nearby dedicated to the patron saint of prisoners, Saint Leonard, following their release. In the First World War, it was here that Austria made a formal request for an armistice and, during the Second World War, the family’s villa was the headquarters of the counterespionage section of the German high command. But it was when Carlo Guerrieri Gonzaga took over the Tenuta in the 1970s that San Leonardo began to make viticultural history, replanting the vineyards to craft a wine that would become an Italian classic. Th san leoanrdo cuvee, made only in the best vintages, the blend has remained the same since 1982, mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Carmenère and Merlot. David Mullen Wines
