Lux Vitis Tuscany I.G.T.

Tuscany meets an international grape variety: The Lux Vitis from Tenuta Luce is a Cabernet Sauvignon from Tuscany that carries the warmth and depth of this landscape in every bottle. Tenuta Luce — a joint project of the Tuscan winemaking family Frescobaldi and Mondavi — stands for expressive wines from Montalcino and the surrounding area that combine Tuscan terroir power with international style.

In the glass, the wine glows in an intense ruby red. The nose opens with ripe blackberries and mulberries, followed by juniper, thyme, and a subtle tobacco note. On the palate, it is balanced and dry, with dark fruit supported by Mediterranean herbs — a profile that combines structure and accessibility.

Good with wild boar salami, leg of lamb with rosemary, or a mature Pecorino Toscano. Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Decanting for 30 minutes noticeably opens up the aromas.

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.
