From our sommelier team

A 100% Sangiovese Brunello di Montalcino from Tenuta Luce in southern Tuscany, macerated for around four weeks and aged in large Slavonian oak barrels for at least 24 months. Expect a contemporary, richly styled expression with dried black cherry, kirsch, blood orange and floral notes, firm structure, and bright acidity.

This bottling is distinct from the estate's flagship 'Luce' wine, which is a 50/50 Merlot-Sangiovese blend; the Brunello di Montalcino is a varietal Sangiovese expression that showcases the same Montalcino fruit in its purest DOCG-mandated form, and has drawn strong critic scores across multiple vintages.

Signature pairings

  • Bistecca alla Fiorentina — Classic Tuscan pairing: the wine's firm tannin and bright acidity cut through the char and fat of grilled T-bone steak.
  • Wild boar ragu with pappardelle (pappardelle al cinghiale) — The wine's dried cherry and earthy, savory notes complement the gamey richness and slow-cooked depth of wild boar ragu.
  • Aged Pecorino Toscano with honey — The wine's acidity and red-fruit profile balance the salty, nutty intensity of aged pecorino, while its structure stands up to the cheese's density.

Luce Della Vite Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2020 is a single-varietal expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany's most prestigious appellations. This wine showcases the classic profile of Brunello: ripe red cherry and plum on the nose, layered with earthy minerality and dried herb complexity. The palate is structured and elegant, with medium-high tannins and acidity that frame the fruit and suggest considerable aging potential. Secondary oak and tertiary leather and tobacco notes add depth and sophistication, making this a wine suited to serious food pairing and contemplative cellaring.
