Lucente is the result of a careful selection of the estate’s vineyards that are particularly suited for the production of a fruity and very pleasant wine. Like Luce, it is made from Sangiovese and Merlot, which prevails in the blend.

The wine’s introduction is juicy and rich. Gifted with great complexity the wine exhibits delicate notes reminiscent of the Mediterranean brush supported by a well-balanced and flavourful structure. In the mouth the wine is open and generous with a predominant impression of tense freshness completed by a silky and precise tannic structure. Lucente’s finish is soft and persistent and characterised by a pleasant crispness.
