The wine "Luce" from the Frescobaldi winery is one of the most prestigious oenological gems produced in the heart of Tuscany. This IGT is a symbol of the perfect marriage between innovation and tradition, resulting from a meticulous selection of Sangiovese and Merlot grapes, harvested and vinified with the utmost care.

With a deep ruby red color, "Luce" reveals a rich and complex bouquet on the nose where notes of ripe fruit such as plums and cherries stand out, intertwined with hints of sweet spices, chocolate, and a light touch of vanilla, due to aging in French oak barriques.

On the palate, the wine is powerful yet harmonious, with an impeccable balance between soft tannins and vibrant freshness that leads to a long and persistent finish. The excellent structure and aromatic complexity make "Luce" a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has great aging potential.

Ideal for pairing with rich dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, roasted red meats, and aged cheeses, "Luce" Frescobaldi is a true exponent of Italian winemaking excellence, capable of offering a unique and unforgettable sensory experience.

This wine is not only the result of the highest quality of Tuscan viticulture but also represents the passion and dedication of one of the most respected families in the wine world. "Luce" is more than a wine; it is a shining light in the international wine landscape.
