Luce Lucente 750ML Lucente is the second wine of Tenuta Luce, crafted in Tuscany from estate vineyards in Montalcino. It is typically a blend of Merlot and Sangiovese, combining the richness and softness of Merlot with the structure and elegance of Sangiovese. On the nose, Lucente offers inviting aromas of ripe red cherry, blackberry, and plum layered with notes of sweet spice, cocoa, and a touch of vanilla from oak aging. The palate is smooth and well balanced, showing juicy dark fruit flavors, hints of tobacco and baking spice, and refined tannins that lead to a long, polished finish. The wine is aged in oak barrels to enhance depth and complexity while maintaining freshness and approachability. Bottled at 14 percent ABV, Lucente pairs beautifully with grilled meats, pasta with rich sauces, aged cheeses, and classic Italian dishes. It can be enjoyed now or cellared for additional development.
