Lucente Luce delle Vite 2022 (750ML)

90 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "This is a mid-tier blend of Merlot and Sangiovese. The Tenuta Luce 2022 Lucente opens to an inky black appearance. The wine shows oak-driven aromas of cedar and pinewood. But the effect is quite soft and hydrated. You get barbecued flavors and a hint of hickory meat. All the elements are there to underline an international-minded red blend. Production hovers at 400,000 bottles made annually." 11/24

93 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "This is round and creamy, offering ripe blackberries, blueberries and hints of chocolate and cedar. Medium- to full-bodied with succulent fruit and fine tannins. Compact and focused, with good length and balance overall. Drink or hold." 07/24
