Montalcino Sangiovese-Merlot blend of restrained sophistication. Mature expression rewarding contemplative appreciation and substantial gastronomy.
This 2013 Sangiovese and Merlot blend from Luce della Vite represents the measured elegance characteristic of Montalcino's terroir. The marriage of indigenous Tuscan Sangiovese with Merlot creates a wine of considerable structure and refinement, where dark cherry and plum notes interweave with earthy undertones and subtle tannin texture. A decade of bottle age has allowed the components to achieve harmonious integration, lending the wine depth and contemplative character. Serve at 16°C alongside aged Pecorino Romano or slow-braised game dishes that honour its gravitas and complexity.
