Tenuta Luce della Vite 2005
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyA challenging year in Tuscany the mix is 45/55 sangiovese/merlot. The nose is typically spicy with notes of black cherry kirsch and barnyard, floral, rosemary aromas. Rich, round, full and slightly tannic yet fresh and warm. Big coffee, liquorice, black cherry, plum, spicy, garrigue, meaty, peppery flavours. Good concentration but very warm and dry with some harder tannins to shed. Needs 3-5 years but will improve and open up from its current backward state. Think osso buco style dishes.Tasted: 03 November 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $93.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
