'Lucente' Toscana IGT Marchesi de' Frescobaldi 2021 MAGNUM in Wooden Box

Lucente from the fourteenth-century Tuscan winery Marchesi de' Frescolbaldi is a Toscana IGT wine made from a blend of Merlot (50%), Sangiovese (35%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (15%). From this winning union between Italian-French varieties comes a perfectly harmonious and balanced wine with a particularly pleasant sip which, thanks to its excellent evolution, is exceptional if left to age for a few years. Produced from the grapes of the vineyards grown in the Montalcino area, this red is the result of a careful selection of the bunches, followed by a fermentation in stainless steel tanks with a maceration on the skins, after which the Lucente ages for a year in part in new and partly used oak barrels. It is then bottled. However, before being placed on the market, the wine still undergoes a few months of aging in glass. The result is an elegant, intense and round label, for an austere red, with a good structure, soft and particularly enveloping. A wine of considerable depth that has obtained the important recognitions of the Gambero Rosso and Veronelli guides.
