The 2009 Luce della Vite bursts onto the palate with notable vibrancy in its dark red cherries, plums, flowers, licorice and sweet spices. The 2009 needs a few years for the tannins to soften but it shows plenty of energy and persistence. This is a strong showing for Luce della Vite, a Merlot/Sangiovese blend. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
Tasting NotesThe wine greets the eye with a dark ruby, then unfurls a forceful, complex bouquet of remarkable depth, characterized by rich notes of wild blackberry and blackcurrant. Delicate hints of spicy clove and black pepper enliven the background, and subtle impressions of black licorice and balsam gradually make their presence felt as well, creating an aromatic amalgam of enviable richness. The palate opens generous and full-volumed, with ripe tannins that enfold the mouth in their velvety softness, while the near-endless aromatic progression is enhanced by a hint of smokiness through its entire length.

Discover the depth and richness of Luce della Vite - 'Luce', crafted by the renowned Luce della Vite. This exquisite red wine showcases the best of its region, offering a symphony of flavors that include ripe berries, subtle spices, and hints of oak. Perfect for elevating any meal or occasion.

At 15 percent alcohol, 2015 comes calling in a big way with ripe fruit and power. Uncharacteristically showy right out of the gate, the style is rich and powerful but still with enough acidity to keep it fresh and balanced. Think black cherries, dark plums and a plethora of brown spicing. It is a fruitful year and a rich wine that should be popular with those who love the more lavish New World style. At only 35 hectolitres per hectare, the yields are low and well-controlled. Luce spends two years in hand-split oak barriques, of which 85 percent are new.
A ripe but suggestive nose of dark cherries, dark chocolate, hot stones, cassis, brambleberry pie and bark. Yet, on the palate, this paints an altogether different picture, in which sleek tannins carry fresh layers of forest fruit long, through a compact, full-bodied palate. Powerful acidity steers it through to a restrained but chewy finish.

Lamberto Frescobaldi, qui se distingue par sa passion pour le vin et son talent de vigneron, a aujourd'hui la responsabilité de façonner l'avenir du projet viticole entrepris à l'origine par les fondateurs du domaine Luce della Vite. Sa mission première est la revalorisation des vignobles du domaine et l'amélioration des installations de vinification, ainsi que des projets de recherche axés sur de nombreux vignobles expérimentaux. Personne n'était mieux placé que lui pour insuffler une nouvelle énergie au projet lancé en 1995, fruit des rêves et de la détermination de deux figures de proue de la viticulture du XXe siècle, Vittorio Frescobaldi, le père de Lamberto, et Robert Mondavi. Aujourd'hui, le domaine viticole fait partie de la holding Tenute di Toscana, elle-même contrôlée par les Marchesi de' Frescobaldi.

La Toscane, la plus ancienne région viticole d'Italie, n'est peut-être pas un poids lourd en termes de quantité, mais en tant que terre d'origine de deux des vins fins les plus célèbres du pays - le Chianti et le Brunello di Montalcino - elle tient certainement son rang en termes de qualité. Le climat de la Toscane varie de méditerranéen sur la côte à continental dans les Apennins. Plus des deux tiers de la province sont couverts de collines, un facteur de terroir important pour ses vins fins.
