Description

Brunello di Montalcino Luce, is produced in the vineyards of the Luce della Vite estate by the Frescobaldi family in Montalcino. The vineyards are located south-west of the ancient village of Montalcino, at an altitude between 200 and 430 metres above sea level, in an area still characterised by unspoilt nature. The name is inspired by the characteristics of the land, sunny and facing the side of the Tuscan coast, the milder side of Montalcino. The soil composition varies according to altitude, with an alternation of clays, yellow sands and schists.

Vinification
After harvesting, the grapes are sent to fermentation in steel vats for 12 days, with 4 weeks' maceration on the skins.

Refinement
The wine matures in barriques, 10% new and the rest in second-passage Slavonian oak barrels, for a period of 24 months, followed by ageing in bottles.

Awards and Recognition
Year 2016 - Wine Spectator - 96/100

Sommelier Suggestion We recommend pouring the wine into the decanter for a few hours to allow it to aerate and awaken all the aromas. This wine is one of the great Italian red wines particularly suitable for ageing. Remarkable already if drunk now, but we suggest to let it rest in the cellar to reach a full and harmonious maturity, with important aromatic evolutions. Ageing capacity of over 20 years.
Tasting Notes In the glass it has an intense ruby red colour. The nose is complex and fragrant, with notes of ripe red fruit, supported by pleasant sensations of blond tobacco and exotic spices. In the mouth, the wine is harmonious, rich and with great structure, with silky tannins that together with freshness give a very long persistence. A sophisticated and powerful wine.
Pairing Advice
Pairing An excellent companion to accompany an entire meal. First courses with suculent meat sauce, second courses of stewed meat, game and particularly fatty grilled meat, but also suitable to be enjoyed with mature cheese.
