Following a spell spent working at Tenuta San Guido with Mario Incisa della Rocchetta, creator of Sassicaia, he was inspired to see if the clay-limestone soils of his family estate could yield similar results to those achieved by his mentor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1978 the first Cabernet Sauvignon vines joined the Merlot and Carmenere that had long been planted and in 1982 the first vintage of the flagship San Leonardo was produced, rapidly taking its place in the pantheon of Italy's greatest wines. Villa Gresti was created from the desire to produce a wine that could express the elegance ofthe San Leonardo terroir through the smoothness and allure of Merlot and the spicy notes of Carmenère. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is deliciously juicy and chewy with enveloping aromas of raspberries, Cassis, sweet spice and balsamic hints.
