Winemaking is an art. With so many decisions to be made, from selecting grapes at the vineyard to bottling the juice months later at the winery, making wine ends up being an act of expression that says as much about a culture as any art form. To explore this parallel, we’ve brought in some of the world’s foremost experts on winemaking to create masterful wines inspired by history's most famous painters.
Since 1938 the Barbanera family has helped develop the taste and style of Tuscan wines in the modern era. We're extremely excited to introduce them to American wine lovers with this award-winning wine inspired by the legendary Italian painter, Leonardo Da Vinci.

WINE REGION:
Italy
While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
