Luce is the first wine to be produced from a blend of Sangiovese and Merlot in Montalcino. Perfect harmony between the structure and elegance of Sangiovese and the roundness and softness of Merlot. Luce is the iconic wine of estate, capable of expressing, vintage after vintage, our original interpretation of these lands.

Grape variety: Merlot, Sangiovese

Vinification: Merlot and Sangiovese grapes, harvested in September and fermented in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of around 28°C. The wine is left to macerate on the skins for 22 days, then undergoes the malolactic fermentation in barriques. It then ages in new and second-hand French oak barrels (80% new barriques, 20% once-used) for 24 months before being bottled.

Tasting notes: Luce 2021 displays a remarkably intense ruby red colour. On the nose, dark fruit notes stand out, primarily wild blackberry and mulberry, lifted by delicate nuances of sweet violets and other blossoms, and smooth impressions of mixed spices. The palate swifty reveals the wine’s innate character and elegance. Its notably broad volume is enlarged even further by impressive, silk-smooth tannins, crafting a very balanced mid-palate crowned by a near-endless, spice-infused finish.

Food pairing: it is ideal to accompany red meats, stewed meats, game and mature cheeses.

Alcohol content: 15% vol.

Serving temperature: 16-18°C

Awards: James Suckling 96/100
