Description
Luce della Vite Toscana IGT Magnum 2020 by Frescobaldi
Luce della Vite Toscana IGT Magnum 2020 is a great Tuscan red wine signed by Frescobaldi, born from the meeting of Sangiovese and Merlot. In this magnum version and with a wooden case, it presents itself as a striking choice for enthusiasts and collectors, capable of combining elegance, structure, and pleasantness in a typically super Tuscan balance.
Territory and wine style
Produced in Tuscany IGT and linked to the Montalcino area, Luce della Vite Toscana IGT Magnum 2020 interprets the territory with a modern and refined style. The project arises from the desire to enhance the complementarity between the structure and elegance of Sangiovese and the roundness of Merlot, giving life to a red of great personality. The 2020 vintage benefited from climatic conditions that favored a balanced ripening of the grapes, with harvesting carried out at distinct times for the two varieties, in order to preserve their aromatic integrity and freshness.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby red color. The bouquet is broad and complex, with ripe black fruits like blackberry and mulberry, accompanied by hints of cocoa and sweet spices. On the palate, the wine is harmonious and lively, with excellent structure, a fine and silky tannic texture, and a freshness that supports the sip. The finish is elegant, long, and persistent, with a closure that recalls the fruity and spicy sensations perceived on the nose.
Recommended pairings
Luce della Vite Toscana IGT Magnum 2020 pairs effectively with structured and flavorful dishes. It is ideal with grilled red meats, braised dishes, game, important roasts, and preparations from Tuscan cuisine. Excellent also with rich first courses, such as pappardelle with meat ragù or pici with intense sauces, and with aged cheeses with a strong flavor. Its softness makes it versatile even in convivial occasions where an authoritative yet balanced red is sought.
Serving temperature
To best appreciate Luce della Vite Toscana IGT Magnum 2020, a serving temperature between 16 and 18°C is recommended. In the presence of a magnum bottle, an early opening can be helpful to encourage aromatic expression and the full integration of the structure. If possible, a brief oxygenation before serving is advisable.
