Luce 2014 is a deep ruby red colour with purple highlights. To the nose the wine expresses a bouquet of small black fruits, bitter cherries and elegant notes of cocoa and coffee. In the mouth the wine’s elegant and fine tannins bestow the wine with a creamy harmony and a very long persistence with a lightly spiced finish.

The growing season was characterised by an average but slightly warmer than usual spring with rainfall that was well-distributed and regular. This pattern followed through into summer, which helped lower daytime temperatures, reduce heat stress in the plants, and maintain plentiful water reserves. All of this favoured a regular development of the plants that resulted in a homogenous ripening of the grapes, which reach the harvest intensely colored, rich in polyphenols and perfectly healthy.

Tenuta Luce

When Vittorio Frescobaldi – in the early Nineties – met Robert Mondavi, they gave life to a new chapter in the history of the great Tuscan wines, in the history of fine wines. From that meeting, came Luce. It all started from the desire to make a dream come true: create excellent wines from Tuscany in a particularly suitable terroir, Montalcino. An ambitious project called Luce della Vite, a tribute to this primary element that gives warmth, energy, and life: in nature, nothing would exist without light. Over the years, Tenuta Luce honoured this vision and became a cradle where exclusive wines are born, wines that earned a widespread, international appreciation among the great wines from Tuscany.
