'Lux Vitis' Toscana IGT Luce della Vite - Frescobaldi 2019

Lux Vitis Toscana IGT is a red wine characterized by intense aromas, produced by the Luce della Vite - Frescobaldi estate. It is largely obtained from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes with a small percentage of Sangiovese (10%). Both the international and the autochthonous varieties are grown on the sandy lands around Montalcino until the moment of the careful manual harvest which allows for the selection of the healthiest bunches to be transported to the cellar. Here the maceration on the skins, essential for extracting all the aromas, lasts for twenty days. The subsequent spontaneous fermentation takes place in cement tanks and lasts just over ten days. To round off its scents and acquire further complexity, the wine ages for about two years in French oak barriques on the first passage. The result is a wine that lends itself to long rests in the cellar: Lux Vitis Toscana IGT can be appreciated at its best after careful conservation of up to 10 years.
