Toscana IGT
Luce

  • Vintage: 2000,2003,2005,2014
  • Grape Variety: Merlot, Sangiovese
  • Alcohol: 14.5%
  • Volume: 750ml

Luce was the first wine created in Montalcino combining the roundness of Merlot with the structure and elegance of Sangiovese in a land renown for its famous Brunello and strictly made from Sangiovese. The colour is a dense dark purple red. It has rich sweet fragrances of dried plums, blackberry, chocolate, vanilla, pencil lead, tobacco and liquorice. The palate has an abundance of ripe black fruit, alcoholically warm, velvety smooth, intense, with firm yet elegant tannins well supported by an emphatic vein of acidity. The finish is lengthy and harmonious. An occasion wine best served with seared venison and porcini mushrooms.
