Tenuta Luce

Tenuta Luce is a brand of the Marchesi de' Frescobaldi group, which was born in Montalcino in the early nineties from the meeting of Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi, united by the interest of making wine in an exceptional terroir such as that of Montalcino. The estate covers about 192 hectares of land, of which about 55 are vineyards, at an altitude between 350 and 420 meters above sea level. The cultivated varieties are Sangiovese, present in the highest vineyards where the well-drained soil is rich in galestro, and Merlot, which is instead present in the lower vineyards with clayey soils. From these two varieties alone, with the skilful craftsmanship of the winemakers, heirs of the teaching of the great Robert Mondavi, great wines are born, recognized and appreciated by the entire international panorama and by the most important critics.
