Tenuta Luce della Vite 1998
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyFull-blown vanilla spice and pepper mark the nose and flavour. The attack is aggressive with cherry kirsch flavours and more spicy peppery fruit in the finish. Big and dry at this point with spicy oak dominating a light mid-palate. It's too early to tell which way this wine will go but it's more along the Tuscan-Euro style.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $93.99 | 750ml | Specialty |
