Lucente 2007: Wine Review

La Vite Lucente Toscana
Lucewines.com
Montalcino,Italia
50% Merlot, 35% Sangiovese, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon

I purchased this bottle at the restaurant I go to regularly. It was suggested to me over a year ago and I have purchased it several times since. I really like this bottle and at $50.00 (restaurant price) it better be tasty.

The color is a pretty purple with ruby edges around the rim. Nice berries and a hint of cocoa-coffee greet the nose. The dark berries are present along with a plum taste to smooth things out. The cocoa-coffee note carries over to the taste. All the flavors are smooth just like the texture. The body is a solid medium style.
