Score 89/100 · Drink 2013-2021, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jun 2009

The 2006 Luce della Vite (55% Merlot, 45% Sangiovese) is one of the finest vintages of this wine I can recall. A big, full bodied wine, the 2006 Luce della Vite flows with super-ripe blackberries, blueberries, spices, minerals in a style that deftly balances sumptuous concentration with the clarity and vibrancy that is the hallmark of this vintage.
