Tenuta Luce | Toskana



When Vittorio Frescobaldi met Robert Mondavi in the early 90s, a new chapter was written in the history of great Tuscan wines. From this meeting was born a wine inspired by the desire to realize a dream: to create in Montalcino, a privileged area for excellent wines, a wine that goes beyond the limits of tradition, recognizing and celebrating it at the same time, enhancing the experience of two historic families in the world of wine.

This ambitious project was named Tenuta Luce, a name that recalls the sunlight of Montalcino, which is the source of life and nourishment, marking the passage of the seasons and setting the pace for every agricultural activity. Since then, Tenuta Luce has always cherished this vision and the symbolic wine of the Tenuta, the Luce, has been joined by other exclusive wines capable of transcending the boundaries of their territory and gaining unanimous recognition at national and international level. - Gerardo [TS06/22]

"Despite its Mondavi past, the Luce is not a noisy wine, but a fine-toned one in which one feels the hills of southern Tuscany." - Vinum

"Tenuta Luce is located among the rolling hills of the southwestern side of Montalcino. Situated between 200 and 430 meters above sea level, the estate consists of vineyards, olive groves and woods, surrounded by a wild nature rich in biodiversity. Tenuta Luce was born from the extraordinary sunlight of Montalcino, brought to the world by the light of passion and know-how. Tenuta Luce is like the light itself: a living harmony of contrasting wines." - Falstaff

"Sparkling, rich ruby-purple. Very appealing and open nose with rich notes of crisp berry fruit, plum and cherry, plus some red currant, lots of tobacco in the background. Juicy in the approach, shows beautifully carved out fruit, grippy tannin in many layers, in the final a lot of pressure." - Falstaff

"Accentuated aromas of blueberry, stone fruit and dark chocolate, also spices and sandalwood; in the mouth it presents its dense, tight tannin, but also has density and fullness until the ell-long finish on notes of black cherries and licorice." - Vinum

Luce · Bolgheri Superiore DOC 2019


Tenuta Luce, Tuscany

The Luce with its catchy label, is a world famous Sangiovese-Merlot blend with 24 months of barrel aging. The bouquet is floral and reminiscent of violets and roses, the tannic structure is smooth and tightly woven. On the palate, impressions of cocoa and balsamic notes, subtly smoky. For decades, this cuvée has stood for the skillful combination of two world-famous wine-growing countries and cultures: Italy (Sangiovese) and France (Merlot). - Gerardo [TS06/20]

"Dark ruby red. In the nose very expressive, after cassis, ground blueberries, in addition noble wood use, a breath sealing wax, in the reverberation fine malty notes. On the palate with lots of juice and pithy tannin, spreads over the tongue, with beautiful spicy notes, stoffig, in the reverberation then, however, a bit harsh and still very young." - Falstaff

"Accentuated aromas of blueberry, stone fruit and dark chocolate, also spices and sandalwood; in the mouth it presents its dense, tight tannin, but also has density and fullness until the ell-long finish on notes of black cherries and licorice." - Vinum

"An icon wine of the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Tenuta Luce Luce is recognized far and wide for its pretty sunshine motif on the front label. This mix of equal parts Sangiovese and Merlot is a symbolic marriage of Italy and France blended to safeguard the core identities of its two vinous protagonists. The Sangiovese adds wild rose, cherry and freshness; the Merlot brings on softness and texture. Each actor plays off the other in a flirtatious but ultimately complementary manner. This is a full-bodied Tuscan blend that will definitely give pleasure to that large crowd of Luce enthusiasts out there." - Robert Parker

"Violets, fresh mint and raspberry come together with reductive notes of tar as well as tobacco, leather and spices—cardamom jumps out in particular—on the complex nose of this wine. Dark berries emerge on the palate, with more herbs, spices, bitter chocolate and coffee grinds. The dusty tannins and searing acid confirm time will elevate this even further." - Danielle Callegari (Wine Enthusiast)

Tenuta Luce | Toskana | Buy at Gerardo

In 2005 Lamberto Frescobaldi, Vittorio's son, took over the management of the Tenuta Luce project. Today he is responsible for all production guidelines, from the vineyard to the creation of the blends of each vintage. His work, characterized by a deep respect for the land and its people, results in the transformation of the fruits of the vines into fine wines that reflect the beauty of the land in which they are born.

In 2016, after the last acquisition, Tenuta Luce built a new winery that fits perfectly into the Montalcino area. Here is the Luce Collection, which, like an ancient library, preserves and tells the entire history of Luce. Here too, as in the vineyards, the values of Tenuta Luce guide every choice. In addition to the beauty of nature in the vineyards, here, in the winery, we find the beauty created by man, which inspires us to work better and better. - Gerardo [TS06/22]
