A delicate whiff of dusty dried violets gives way to cedary spice and crushed plums as the 2020 Luce slowly opens in the glass. This is soothingly round and supple with cooling acidity and a tinge of minerality up front. Tart red berry fruits swirl across a stream of zesty acidity. The 2020 displays fantastic depth and concentration, tapering off long and gently tannic as black raspberries pucker the cheeks. This is a very approachable vintage of Luce, yet the balance is spot on. Nicely done. (Eric Guido, Vinous, September 2024)

Drank 10/6/23. Tasting event. Dark cherry, earth, floral nose. Black fruit with cherry, plum, tar, leather. Drying tannins, long finish, with nice balance. Give it some time to age. 2020 vintage 3/22/8/4/4 + 50 = 91 pts

On nose, its violets, fruits, leather. On palate its tannic, high acidity, strong merlot acidity, licorice, earthy. Its still very young wine, give it 2-3 hours of decant or overnight with the cork. Enjoy!

Ripe red fruit, earthy with light smoke. An impressive wine for the price.
