Description
Lux Vitis 2015 Toscana IGT Frescobaldi: Cabernet Sauvignon from Montalcino
Lux Vitis 2015 Toscana IGT by Frescobaldi is an exclusive wine born in Montalcino from a vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon accompanied by a small portion of Sangiovese. A label of great personality, produced in limited quantities, that expresses the meeting of elegance, concentration, and territorial identity. Long aging in new French oak barrels and a rigorous style make this Tuscan red a prestigious choice for those seeking an important, modern wine deeply connected to the territory.
Territory and wine style
Lux Vitis comes from Montalcino, a symbol area of Tuscan wine, where Cabernet Sauvignon finds an original and distinct interpretation. The base of the wine comes from sandy mixed soils and a 2015 harvest characterized by regular maturation and favorable climatic conditions. The result is a Toscana IGT with a Mediterranean profile, rich and complex, that combines the typical structure of the grape variety with the finesse brought by the small amount of Sangiovese. The production choice focuses on the precision of the fruit and an elegant evolution, without sacrificing expressive strength.
