Tenuta Luce Brunello di Montalcino 2017, D.O.C.G. Brunello di Montalcino, Italy
Set in the rolling hills of Montalcino, the Luce estate blends tradition and innovation in the heart of Tuscany. Founded in the 1990s by the Frescobaldi and Mondavi families, Luce brings together Sangiovese and Merlot in a unique expression of the region’s rich terroir. With a name that means light, Luce reflects a philosophy of balance, elegance, and harmony with nature. Its signature wine—a bold blend of Tuscan character and international finesse—has become a modern icon, celebrated for its depth, complexity, and timeless style.
Refined and expressive, the 2017 Luce Brunello di Montalcino showcases the elegance and depth of Sangiovese from this iconic terroir. Aromas of dried cherry, rose petals, and crushed herbs unfold alongside notes of sweet tobacco, spice, and a subtle earthy minerality. The palate is poised and structured, with fine-grained tannins and a core of ripe red fruit, framed by vibrant acidity. A wine of graceful power and impressive length, it captures both the warmth of the vintage and the timeless character of Brunello.
