The grape derives its moniker from the words for dawn (“erba”) and light (“luce”), alluding to the striking copper color the grapes assume as the sun hits them on traditional pergola-trained vines. The ‘Tradizione’ bottling is far and away the estate’s crown jewel; with grapes harvested over 3 separate passes late in the vintage, the style errs towards the riper and fuller end of what is traditionally a high acid, high tensile grape. 6 months sur lie in large tonneaux helps to round the edges yet further pushing the wine beyond its classic stonefruit profile into something that speaks more to pineapple and green melon.
