About Luce Estate in Montalcino, Italy

The Luce Estate was founded in 1995 through collaboration between Vittorio Frescobaldi and Robert Mondavi. It brought about a new chapter in the history of great Tuscan wines.  Luce is a unique expression of Tuscany, with grapes from vineyards with some of the best growing conditions in this wine region. This is the first wine produced in Montalcino by blending the roundness and suppleness of Merlot with the structure and elegance of Sangiovese.

Caring on his father's legacy, Lamberto Frescobaldi, Vittorio's son now runs the estate.
