Luce della Vite Lux Vitis 2022

Luce della Vite Lux Vitis is a powerful yet refined Toscana IGT that brings together Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese in a distinctive Tuscan expression. Born from the meeting of two noble grape varieties, it showcases both richness and precision, with the kind of depth and elegance that has made Frescobaldi one of Tuscany’s most respected names.

Tasting Notes
Deep and intense in the glass, Lux Vitis offers a dark, concentrated profile with layered aromas of ripe red fruit, sweet spices, and toasted oak. Hints of cocoa, graphite, and subtle balsamic notes add further complexity, giving the wine a polished and inviting aromatic profile. On the palate, it is full-bodied and generous, but always balanced by vibrant acidity and a firm, well-integrated tannic structure. The finish is long and persistent, leaving behind lingering notes of spice, fruit, and gentle roasted nuances. This is a wine with excellent aging potential, and it will continue to gain nuance and harmony over time.

Production
Produced in Toscana IGT, Lux Vitis reflects the region’s warm climate, varied soils, and ideal conditions for ripening both Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. The grapes are fermented in concrete tanks, with around 20 days of skin maceration to extract color, structure, and aromatic depth. Malolactic fermentation takes place in barriques, followed by 24 months of maturation in 100% new French oak barriques, which adds polish, complexity, and a refined toasted character.

Food & Serving
This is an ideal match for grilled or roasted red meats, game, lamb, and richly flavored dishes such as braised beef, truffle risotto, or aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least an hour before serving to allow the wine’s aromas and structure to open fully.
