The wine

Chianti DOCG Leonardo Da Vinci 1502: The Tuscan soul in a bottle

Let me guide you to a hidden treasure of Tuscany, a wine that carries within it the legacy of a genius and the richness of a terroir. The Chianti DOCG Leonardo Da Vinci 1502 is an invitation to a sensory journey into the heart of the Italian wine tradition.

The terroir of the hills, the history of a name

In the heart of Tuscany, on hills bathed in sunshine, this Chianti DOCG is born. The Leonardo Da Vinci 1502 estate honors the universal genius, and its wines tell a story of excellence and centuries-old tradition. The 2021 vintage of this Chianti is the pure expression of its terroir. It is made from 85% Sangiovese, the region's emblematic grape variety, complemented by 10% Merlot and 5% other red grape varieties, each contributing their nuance to the final complexity. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, with skin maceration that extracts color and structure, followed by a minimum ageing of 12 months.

When you pour this wine, you discover a deep and luminous red color. On the nose, it envelops you with fragrant notes of small red fruits, light spicy nuances and a sensual bouquet evoking the earth and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, this Chianti reveals itself with silky tannins and lively acidity, offering a perfect balance between freshness and structure. You will find aromas of red fruits, spicy touches and delicate floral notes, testifying to its ageing.

At the table with the Chianti Leonardo Da Vinci 1502

This Chianti DOCG is the ideal companion for your Tuscan meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled red meats, where its character and structure can fully express themselves. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, whose complex flavors it will highlight. It is a wine that celebrates the cultural and wine-growing heritage of the region, perfect for an evening with friends or a romantic dinner, transporting you directly under the Tuscan sun with every sip.

The detail I like about this 2021 Chianti is its aging of at least 12 months after fermentation in steel tanks and maceration on the skins: a lovely way to let the Sangiovese lead the dance, with Merlot lending support. If you want a structured Tuscan red without losing freshness, this one deserves a look.
