Bottle size: 750 ml

Sweetness: Extra Dry

Wine Type: Red Wine


Winery: Luce

Agent: Mark Anthony Wine & Spirits

Natalie's Score: 99/100

Produced by Luce della Vite, Luce 2019 is a Super Tuscan red blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Sangiovese, rich and full-bodied with blackberry, cassis, black olives and savoury herbs intense and concentrated on the palate. Tannins are firm and chewy and the wine would benefit from some time in cellar. If having now, decant two hours prior to pouring with a meaty lasagne or try in 2026.

Food pairings: bean-based dishes, lamb chops, chateaubriand, cheddar cheeses.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
