Luce Toscana IGT 0.75L

Luce della Vite is one of Tuscany's most famous cuvées — a joint project between the Frescobaldi and Mondavi families that has shown since the 1990s what Sangiovese and Merlot can achieve together on Tuscan soils. This 6-liter Imperiale is not just a magnum-format experience, but a statement for special occasions.

In the glass, the cuvée presents itself in a deep ruby red. The nose opens with ripe blackberries and mulberries, accompanied by floral hints of violets and a sweet-spicy depth derived from barrique aging. On the palate, the Merlot component shows in the velvety texture, while the Sangiovese provides structure and an invigorating line of acidity. The finish is long, with notes of dark cherry and a hint of cedar wood.

Serve the Luce at 17–18 °C, ideally after a short decanting time of 30 to 45 minutes. At the table, it pairs with Tuscan Bistecca alla Fiorentina, braised leg of lamb with rosemary, or aged Pecorino Stagionato. The large format is suitable for celebrations, anniversaries, or wine evenings where the wine itself becomes a topic of conversation.

Luce della Vite

Tenuta Luce della Vite – Tuscan high-altitude art. Southwest of Montalcino, the estate stretches 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 grows in deeper, clay- and sand-rich locations. Long, hot summers, southern exposure, slow ripening – this results in concentrated, powerful wines.

Sustainable agriculture, organic technologies, 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.
