The wine

Lucente di Luce : The Radiance of Tuscany

Imagine yourself, in the heart of the Tuscan hills, a wine that captures the very essence of this generous land. Lucente is that light, that invitation to discover a red which, I promise you, will charm you with its elegance and depth. It embodies the soul of Tuscany, a promise of shared moments and authentic flavors.

The Terroir of the Montalcino Hills

This wine is the fruit of the Luce estate, nestled in the magnificent Montalcino Hills, an emblematic region of Tuscany. Here, the sun caresses the vines and the soil tells centuries of winemaking history. Lucente is an expression of this unique terroir, a Toscana IGT that combines the power of Sangiovese, the region's king grape, with the roundness of Merlot, for perfect harmony. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation also in steel, key steps to preserve the purity of the fruit.

When you bring this wine to your lips, you will discover a deep and luminous red color. On the nose, I perceive intense aromas of red fruits and wild berries, interwoven with balsamic and spicy notes that invite you to travel. On the palate, Lucente reveals itself ample and velvety, with a beautiful structure and silky tannins, all supported by 12 months of aging in barriques which gives it remarkable complexity and elegance. It is a wine that speaks to you, that tells you its story with every sip.

Gourmet Pairings with Lucente

To accompany this Lucente, I suggest pairing it with dishes that will showcase it without overshadowing it. Think of grilled or sauced red meats, a slow-cooked game dish that will reveal its spicy notes, or aged cheeses that will pair perfectly with its richness. It is the ideal companion for a dinner among friends, a special occasion where you wish to share a moment of conviviality and gustatory pleasure. Let it breathe a little after opening, serve it in large red wine glasses, and you will see, it will thank you by revealing all its splendor.

On the hills of Montalcino, Sangiovese brings structure and Merlot the roundness: a well-thought-out duo for a red meat or a slow-cooked game dish. Open it a little before sitting down to eat, especially if you're bringing out the aged cheeses!
