Tenuta Luce La Vite Lucente 2009
Tuscany, ItalyThe 2009 Lucente is delicious. The nose is inviting and open with a mix of red fruits, wild strawberries, pepper and milk chocolate. The style has evolved since access to the 55-hectare estate fruit was established in 2005. The latest 09 is soft, rich and powerful with warm, spicy, flavourful nuances. A much more friendly style here you can serve now with spaghetti Bolognese, grilled meats and cheese. The current mix is 75/25 merlot/sangiovese aged in 55% new French oak and 5% new American oak, 40 % French oak used once.Tasted: 14 February 2013Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $40.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
