The 2021 Lucente Marchesi di Frescobaldi is a Supertuscan blend, primarily Merlot and Sangiovese, from the Luce della Vite estate. It is the second wine of the estate, sourced from different plots and younger vines than the flagship bottling. The 2021 vintage was a highly regarded year in Tuscany, resulting in a wine with excellent balance and structure. This expression offers a profile of ripe black cherry and plum, with a subtle spiciness and a well-integrated oak character and a smooth, approachable tannic structure.

This is another robust wine from Tenuta Luce with immediate notes of maple syrup and brown sugar. Made with a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Sangiovese, the 2021 Lucente releases aromas of cherry cola, Tootsie Roll and toasted hazelnut. With 300,000 bottles made, you get a big and burley red wine.

Montalcino. Deep, lustrous crimson. A little subdued, with brooding intensity. Cherry with just a suggestion of savoury oak and vanilla. Succulent cherry palate loaded with grainy tannins. Great balance, but not ready yet. (WS)
