Located in the Montalcino area, southwest of the medieval city, Tenuta Luce Della Vite, one of the estates of the Frescobaldi family, produces some of the best wines of Tuscany and the greatest Italian wines. Literally, Tuscany in a unique light.
Lucente is the result of a careful selection of the estate’s vineyards that are particularly suited for the production of a fruity and very pleasant wine. Like Luce, it is made from Sangiovese and Merlot, which prevails in the blend.
In the late 1990s, the Bolfo family decided to breathe new life into the ruins of an old convent located in the charming countryside of Pievasciata, a picturesque village in the municipality of Castelnuovo Berardenga (Siena). And it was from the vineyards of this monastery, lovingly and carefully transformed into the prestigious 5-star Hotel Le Fontanelle, that the story of Vallepicciola began.
A harmonious blend of three varietals: Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, Pievasciata is a full-bodied and intense, yet simple to drink.
