Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Luce della Vite / Brunello di Montalcino
Luce della Vite opens with an inky dark appearance and added extraction that is hard to find otherwise in 2008 Brunello. Soft aromas of cherry and blackberry are followed by supple fragrances of leather and spice. There is fruit pulp in the mouth and the wine’s extra richness really helps to balance out its acidity and those still-young tannins.
