Tenuta Luce della Vite 2000
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyBig ripe black cherry, black plum jam, spicy, clove, tobacco, black pepper nose with saddle leather, smoke and vanilla - great fruit intensity. Rich, round and ripe with big concentration and grainy tannins. Intense peppery, dark chocolate, vanilla, cassis jam, black cherry, smoky root and gamey flavours. Long and intense with good acidity although the finish is somewhat alcoholic. Perhaps the best yet and should improve for 3-6 years at least.Tasted: 27 September 2004Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:BC | $93.00 | 750ml | Specialty |
