The winery\u2019s aim is to reinterpret in a modern way the winemaking studies of the Florentine genius. Leonardo came from a family of winegrowers. In 1515 he wrote a letter to his estate manager with precise advice on agronomy and winemaking to produce a flawless wine. That document gave rise to the Leonardo Method, an approach based on observation, innovation and respect for the land. Grapes are harvested by hand, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks and ageing in Slavonian oak casks.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Description<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Discover the 12-bottle case of Brunello di Montalcino by Cantine Leonardo da Vinci: a journey through four labels and three vintages, from 2013 to 2017.
