Luce della Vite Brunello di Montalcino

The Luce della Vite shows a radiant, intense ruby red. On the nose, this Supertuscan presents a broad spectrum of aromas consisting of blueberry, sour cherry, and cassis in harmony with notes of spices like tobacco, licorice, star anise, and cardamom, as well as hints of cocoa and coffee. On the palate, it is very dense and intense with a velvety tannin coat and a refreshing fruit acidity that tastes of forest berries.

Aging: 36 months partly in oak barriques, partly in large Slavonian oak barrels. Barriques of French oak, 10% new barriques and 90% second-fill.

Available in original 3-bottle wooden crate upon request.

The Winery

Luce della Vite

Tenuta Luce della Vite – Tuscan high-altitude art. Southwest of Montalcino, the estate extends over 192 hectares, 55 of which are vineyards. 350 to 420 meters above sea level – one of the highest locations in the area.

Sangiovese grows on Galestro soil, while Merlot thrives in deeper, clay- and sand-rich sites. Long, hot summers, southern exposure, slow ripening – this results in concentrated, powerful wines.

Low yields (approx. 30 hl per hectare). Thinning, defoliation – everything to strengthen the character of the grape varieties and capture the essence of the terroir. Montalcino in its purest form.
