After 1 hr in decanter, truly impressed by 2010 Luce #Frescobaldi #Tuscany. Savory, compact, food-worthy, cellar-ready.

We had the 2010 Vintage on 7/10-11/21. This is a terrific blend of Sangiovese and Merlot. There are tastes of black cherry, current, oak and eucalyptus. Wonderful bouquet. Fruit forward and well balanced, yet Old World. Delicious
