About the producer: When Vittorio Frescobaldi met Robert Mondavi in ​​the early 1990s, he opened a new chapter in the history of great Tuscan wines. This meeting was the origin of Luce, a wine driven by the desire to make a dream come true: in Montalcino, a special area for the production of excellent wines, to create a wine that transcends the boundaries of tradition without it However, to deny this, drawing on the experiences of two old winemaking families.
