Leonardo Da Vinci
The Tuscan wine reality Leonardo Da Vinci is a cooperative winery that has built its foundations on the intimate relationship between Genius and wine. In fact, Leonardo's family owned vineyards in the surroundings of Vinci, a village located near Florence that gave birth to the artist. He cultivated his passion for wine in Romagna, at the court of the Borgia, where he learned new winemaking techniques, while in Milan Ludovico Il Moro gifted him half a hectare of vineyard as a reward for the creation of one of his greatest masterpieces: The Last Supper. During his life, Leonardo dedicated himself to perfecting viticultural practices through the observation of Nature, from which he derived a series of fundamental and highly innovative steps for the time, reported in a letter addressed to his factor in Fiesole dated 1515. On this basis, after years of studies, the Leonardo Da Vinci winery has developed the so-called “Leonardo Method”, a registered protocol aimed at achieving the highest quality attainable. The cooperative project was launched in 1961 bringing together vineyards scattered in different areas of Tuscany, while since 2012 the property has been acquired by the Caviro Group, among the Italian and global leaders in the wine sector, and today the vineyard of Leonardo Da Vinci also has holdings in Romagna.
The cooperative winery Leonardo Da Vinci cultivates a combination of traditional Tuscan varieties and international grapes, including Sangiovese, Colorino, Trebbiano, Vermentino, Merlot, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, and Syrah. The agronomic management aims to enrich the vitality of the soil through the use of natural fertilizers and amendments, while simultaneously reducing the environmental impact of the production cycle. In the winery, the most modern technologies in the sector are employed, all to guide the winemaking process with awareness. The types of materials used in winemaking and aging are quite varied, with steel and French oak at the forefront.
The production of the Leonardo Da Vinci winery embraces some of the most important denominations of Tuscany, such as Brunello di Montalcino and the Chianti. There are also wines with an international style, always produced in the name of pleasantness and balance.
