It took us all the experience acquired over many years of careful and respectful observation of Nature to breathe life into Lux Vitis.
Everything began in a Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard planted in Montalcino in 2004 on mixed sandy soil. Over the years, we observed these vines as they grew and were surprised by the exceptional quality of their grapes, so much so we decided to make an exclusive wine, capable of interpreting the Tenuta Luce terroir through Cabernet Sauvignon.
To these grapes, we added a small quantity of Sangiovese to enrich the wine’s character. The long ageing in new French oak barrels for 24 months further enhanced the elegance of this new wine by Tenuta Luce. This was back in 2015, and we named this wine Lux Vitis.

Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, with a small amount of Sangiovese.

Intense ruby red, Lux Vitis 2020 impresses with its stylish finesse and multilayered complexity.

After a brief aeration, it releases notes of redcurrant, well-ripened fruit, and sweet violets, lifted by a touch of cocoa powder.

Full-bodied yet velvet-smooth on entry, the palate is beautifully supported by a refreshing acidity and elegant, enfolding tannins.

Pungent impressions of roast espresso bean and wild herbs grace a finish that seems nearendless.
