To the eye, it presents an intense and brilliant red colour, enriched by vivid violet reflections. The bouquet is distinguished by its clarity, releasing enveloping \u003cstrong\u003escents of wild berries\u003c\/strong\u003e and jam, accompanied by delicate hints of tobacco and a light spicy note. On the palate, it reveals a full body, where the \u003cstrong\u003esilky and well-integrated tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e provide a pleasant roundness, leading the tasting towards a persistent finish enriched by a measured toasted note.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is produced in Montalcino under the auspices of the Luce estate. Its creation is the result of a joint project between Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi, aimed at enhancing the excellence of the \u003cstrong\u003eTuscan territory\u003c\/strong\u003e through meticulous agronomic care. The vines grow in an ideal pedoclimatic context, ensuring perfect ripening of the grapes. This synergy between soil and expertise translates into a \u003cstrong\u003emarked gastronomic vocation\u003c\/strong\u003e: the sip is indeed perfect for accompanying dishes based on \u003cstrong\u003ered meats and game\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as structured first courses and selections of mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest takes place in September, respecting the ripening times of each variety. The process begins with \u003cstrong\u003efermentation in stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, carried out at a controlled temperature to preserve the integrity of the primary aromas. This is followed by a \u003cstrong\u003emaceration on the skins\u003c\/strong\u003e of about twenty days, essential for extracting colour and structure, and the completion of malolactic fermentation. The wine then undergoes \u003cstrong\u003eageing in barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for twelve months, using partially new wood to soften its texture. To best appreciate its nuances, it is recommended to decant it about an hour before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn from the historic meeting in Montalcino between Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi, \u003cstrong\u003eLucente Toscana Rosso IGT\u003c\/strong\u003e skilfully combines local tradition and international excellence.
