Luce della Vite has been founded at the beginning of the 1990s by the Tuscan aristocrat and winemaker, Vittorio Frescobaldi, and the renowned American winemaker Robert Mondavi. They were brought together by the desire of creating excellent Tuscan wines in Montalcino. Luce della Vite means “light of vine”, as a reference to the sun: the source of life, energy and warmth.

Lucente is the result of a careful selection of the estate’s vineyards that are particularly suited for the production of a fruity and very pleasant wine. Like Luce, it is made from Sangiovese and Merlot, which prevails in the blend.

The Tenuta Luce 2023 Lucente, a blend of Merlot and Sangiovese, offers a cheerful and immediately accessible expression with soft plum, blackcurrant and gentle sweet spice woven throughout. Medium- to full-bodied in weight, the wine shows supple tannins and a velvety mouthfeel, shaped by a warm vintage yet supported by enough freshness to keep it lively and food-friendly. Designed as the estate’s most approachable bottling, Lucente finishes on a short but refreshing note.

A juicy and delicious wine with aromas of black cherries, walnuts, flint, graphite and matchsticks. Medium-bodied with creamy and refined tannins and a pretty finish. Inky aftertaste with some iodine. 60% merlot and 40% sangivoese. Drink or hold.
