AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Brunello di Montalcino – Tenuta Luce, Frescobaldi 2016
Tenuta Luce is part of the historic Frescobaldi family, whose presence in Tuscany dates back over 700 years. While the estate is best known for Luce della Vite, its Brunello di Montalcino reflects the same focus on terroir, precision, and respect for tradition, drawing from selected Sangiovese vineyards in the Montalcino area.
The 2016 vintage is widely regarded as a benchmark year in Montalcino, combining excellent ripeness with freshness and balance. In this Brunello, the vintage expresses itself through clear aromas of red cherry, wild berries, dried herbs, and subtle notes of tobacco and spice. On the palate, the wine is structured yet refined, with fine-grained tannins and a lively acidity that supports both depth and drinkability.
While capable of aging, Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Luce 2016 is already approachable with some aeration, offering a harmonious and elegant expression of Sangiovese. It is a classic, well-proportioned Brunello that highlights the quality of the vintage without excess, making it suitable both for near-term enjoyment and cellaring.
