Parker about Luce Brunello di Montalcino 2019
The Tenuta Luce 2019 Brunello di Montalcino carries a good amount of oak spice with campfire ash, forest floor, dried cherry, cassis, rye bread and something floral like a hydrangea or pressed rose. There is a balsamic note as well as Sambuca or aniseed. This is a medium to full-bodied Brunello (made with 35,000 bottles) that shows dried fruit flavors and a substantial 15% alcohol pull on the lengthy finish.

Suckling over Luce Brunello di Montalcino 2019
Black cherries and blueberries with walnut and lavender undertones. Medium body with very fine tannins that run the length of the wine and caress every inch of your palate. Fresh and vivid. A wine for the cellar, but already fantastic to taste. Best after 2027.
