“Luce” Toscana IGT 2019 · MAGNUM in OWC
Tenuta Luce | Tuscany
Luce della Vite s.a. a r.l. | Loc. Castelgiocondo | IT 53024 Montalcino
Luce is the wine icon of the eponymous estate and symbol of the harmonious balance between the elegant structure of Sangiovese and the fullness of Merlot. The wine marries the tradition and terroir of the Montalcino region and the personal interpretation of this extraordinary land.
Almost impenetrable ruby red. The bouquet is initially still reductive and relatively austere, which opens up softly and warmly with seductive scents of ripe berries, tobacco and leather with increasing aeration. The taste is concentrated, distinctive and tannic, yet silky and promising on the palate. The finish is long and deep with hints of coffee and vanilla. A great blend of Merlot and Sangiovese with high potential. SUPERIORE.DE
"Engaging dark berry nose, tinged with graphite, vanilla and chocolate notes, subtle spice; opulent, with a velvety tannic acid vein on the palate, comes across as polished yet with structure. Can and should age." Vinum
"The 2019 Luce has a dark, super-viscous colour. With a fleshy cherry fruit, dense, rich concentration and lots of wood, it impresses with intense, ethereal nuances at medium depth. It starts out polished and full in the mouth, showing a deep, racy acidity and remarkably spicy tannins. It plays with a lot of meat and woody sweetness, which merge with balsamic notes. Deep, long and seductive, youthfully fresh and with good length." Weinwisser
"Dark ruby red. Very expressive nose of cassis, ground blueberries, noble use of wood, a hint of sealing wax, fine malty notes in the finish. On the palate with a lot of juice and pithy tannin, spreads over the tongue, with beautiful spicy notes, full-bodied, in the finish, however, a bit harsh and still very young." Falstaff
"This Italian wine is an icon in its own right and proves to be exceptionally versatile and likeable year after year. The bouquet is characterised by dark fruits, cooked cherry and lots of spicy oak and tobacco from barrique ageing." Wine Advocate
"Rich and deep colour evoking aromas of black cherries, blackberries, plums, tar, wild herbs and spices. Dense, yet fresh, with fine tannins on the finish. Well integrated and long." Wine Spectator
"The first Sangiovese-based 'blend' in Montalcino, capable of maintaining, over the years, the enchanted balance between Sangiovese and Merlot. North-west quadrant of the 'hill' that returns in the olfaction, opened by notes of black raspberry, then marjoram, rhubarb and liquorice, with savoury-salty, juicy and crisp drink, fruity return and liquorice sensations." Luca Gardini
"Sophisticated aromas of pencil, graphite and blackcurrant. Also hints of black olives and herbs. Full-bodied, yet dense and deep, with super precision and intensity of tannins. Incredible balance of structure and finesse in this wine. Give it time in the cellar. Better after 2027." James Suckling
