Tuesday, 2 December 2014, 12:27 Last update: about 13 years ago

Luce della Vite is at once the most contemporary and most traditional of wine estates. It is composed of many seemingly opposing elements kept in perfect balance - Old World and New World, terroir and technique, historic and modern are combined to create wines of exceptional quality and longevity. From its inception, Luce was an innovative wine and the first ever produced in Montalcino by blending Merlot and Sangiovese grapes. The use of non-indigenous varietals may not seem unusual today, but ten years ago the idea was viewed as radical in a region known and revered for its Brunello di Montalcino, made strToday, the estate produces three wines: Luce, Lucente, and Luce Brunello di Montalcino and wholly owned by the Frescobaldi family.

Exclusively imported by Charles Grech & Co. Ltd, Valley Road, B'Kara.
