AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Brunello di Montalcino – Tenuta Luce, Frescobaldi

Vertical Collection: 2015 • 2016 • 2017

This lot offers a vertical selection of three consecutive vintages of Brunello di Montalcino from Tenuta Luce, an estate of the historic Frescobaldi family. Tasted side by side, these wines provide a clear and instructive view of how Sangiovese from Montalcino responds to different climatic conditions, while maintaining a consistent house style focused on balance, precision, and elegance.
The 2015 vintage represents a warm and generous year, delivering depth, ripe fruit, and a well-defined structure. It is the most powerful and expressive of the trio, with firm yet polished tannins and excellent aging potential.
The 2016 vintage, widely regarded as a benchmark year in Montalcino, stands out for its harmony and finesse. It combines ripeness with freshness, offering layered aromatics, refined tannins, and a sense of completeness that makes it both enjoyable now and highly suitable for long-term cellaring.
The 2017 vintage reflects a warmer, drier growing season and shows a more immediate, approachable character. Softer tannins and open fruit make it the most accessible wine in the vertical, ideal for earlier drinking while still clearly expressing the identity of Brunello.
Together, these three vintages create a compelling vertical tasting experience, highlighting vintage variation rather than excess. It is an excellent opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to explore the evolution of Tenuta Luce’s Brunello across different years, and to enjoy a thoughtful comparison between structure, balance, and drinkability within the same estate.
