Producer

Tenuta Luce is a prestigious Tuscan estate born from a collaboration between the Lunelli family (of Ferrari Trento) and the Frescobaldi family - two iconic names in Italian wine. The estate focuses on high-quality wines that offer a modern take on classic Tuscan traditions. Lucente stands as one of their flagship wines, combining power and finesse in a distinctive Italian style.

Tenuta Luce is a distinctive wine estate from Montalcino in Tuscany, Italy. It was created in the early 1990s following the meeting between Vittorio Frescobaldi and American winemaker Robert Mondavi. Their shared dream was to create a new Tuscan wine that dared to look beyond established conventions while remaining firmly connected to Montalcino’s centuries-old wine culture. The name Luce refers to the sunlight that brings the landscape to life and determines the rhythm of the seasons.

Lamberto Frescobaldi has directed the estate since 2005. Another important step followed in 2016 with the opening of a largely underground winery, harmoniously integrated into the Tuscan landscape. The vineyards occupy the south-western slopes of Montalcino at elevations ranging from approximately 280 to 418 metres. Schist-like ground, clay, sand and sandstone alternate across the estate, while cool nights support gradual ripening. Tenuta Luce therefore brings together an innovative beginning and a deep affection for Montalcino.
