Luce della Vite Toscana Luce 麓鵲莊園 托斯卡納 IGT 2011

During the month of August two verified climatic events of extraordinary importance took place which shaped the characteristics of the grapes by force of the natural elements. The first half of August was characterized by sunny days, with daytime temperatures never above 30°C, and very cold nights. In the second part of August the strength of the sun gave power and concentration to the red grapes. The final result is that we have obtained red grapes of extraordinary health, mature, concentrated and rich in polyphenols.

A deep, concentrated ruby red. The nose boasts an impressive complex of aromas, opening immediately with intense notes of fresh berryfruit, particularly blackcurrant and raspberry, followed by a hint of smooth vanilla hovering in the background. The palate offers an ultra-appealing crispness complementing its flavours of ripe fruit, dried flowers, and spices edged in smoke. Dense-packed, velvet-textured tannins contribute to an impressive structure that gives the wine its solid backbone.

A near-endless finish provides a seductive vein of tangy mineral and spice, completing a wine that showcases a marriage of crispness and power.

Tasting notes:
Jamessuckling Score 92
A Luce with blueberry, blackberry, ginger, Chinese-mushroom and mineral character. Full body, firm tannins and a long tar and spice finish. Very powerful and extracted. Slight wood-drying tannins annoy me now. This needs time to come together: Try in 2017.

8月份發生了兩次極為重要的氣候事件,透過自然要素的力量,塑造了葡萄的特性。 8月上旬,天氣晴朗,白天氣溫從未超過30°C,夜晚溫度很低。 8月下旬,強烈的日照為紅葡萄賦予了力量和濃度。最終結果是,我們得到了健康、成熟、濃鬱、富含多酚的紅葡萄。

呈現深濃的紅寶石色。香氣中呈現出複雜的香氛,一開始就是濃鬱的鮮紅漿果味,特別是黑加侖和樹莓,隨後隱約有絲滑的香草味。口感上則呈現出極富吸引力的清新感,配合成熟水果、乾燥花和煙燻香料的風味。密集的天鵝絨般柔滑的單寧賦予了酒體相當可觀的結構,支撐著整體。

悠長的收尾帶來誘人的礦物和香料的酸爽質感,完美結合了清新與力量。

品酒筆記:
Jamessuckling 92分
這款路奇亮相了藍莓、黑莓、生薑、中國蘑菇和礦物質的特色。酒體飽滿,單寧豐富,尾韻中帶有焦油和香料的味道。非常強勁濃鬱。目前,還有些木質單寧的乾澀感讓我有點不快。需要時間才能完美融合。建議於2017年品嚐。
