Luce della Vite Brunello di Montalcino Luce 2019

Luce della Vite Brunello di Montalcino Luce 2019 LUCE BRUNELLO Of the 88 hectares of vineyards owned by Luce della Vite, 11 are registered in the Brunello di Montalcino directory. This is where the Sangiovese for Luce Brunello is produced, our homage to this sublime wine, which was born in Montalcino in the second half of the 19th century. It was the first in Italy to receive controlled and guaranteed designation of origin recognition in 1980, and today it is one of the most representative of the excellent wines produced in Italy. Luce Brunello di Montalcino thus continues a path of the highest quality, inspired by the uniqueness of the appellation and the great wines born here.
