Tasting Tips
Lucente 2006 appears a remarkably intense, deep purple. The nose shows elegant and finely calibrated, with subtle initial notes of vanilla yielding to more fruity fragrances of dried plum and blackberry under spirits. The entry is immediately broad and deep, and the progression energetic and lengthy, marked by supple, densely-woven tannins. Overall, Lucente is a complex, generous, and compelling wine, concluding with an intensely aromatic finale.
Winery
In 1995, Robert Mondavi of California and Vittorio Frescobaldi of Tuscany joined hands to create an Italian wine of extraordinary quality. Their partnership was the first of its kind in Italy, and their premier offering was Luce della Vite. The name means light of the vine in Italian, and was inspired by the morning sunlight on the way from Florence to the renowned winemaking region of Montalcino.
