Shiny It is Luce's second wine.
It is the fruit of a selection of Sangiovese and Merlot grapes capable of producing an immediate and highly pleasant wine, in a contemporary style.
The perfect expression of the uniqueness of the territory from which it comes. It is refined for 12 months in barriques in the cellars of Light Estate before bottling.
The 2018 vintage was characterized by higher than normal rainfall in the winter and spring, which allowed water reserves to accumulate in the soil after the drought of the previous year. A humid spring, combined with high average temperatures, ensured homogeneous vegetative development for the Sangiovese and Merlot. Further rain during flowering slowed down fruit set, naturally lowering the production load of the plants. The summer period was marked by a very regular, dry climate without excessive temperatures, allowing rapid veraison of the grapes. The temperature range between day and night in September, coupled with the north wind, favored the ripening of the grapes with a magnificent aromatic evolution.
