In 2019, to mark the 500th anniversary of Leonardo da Vinci\u2019s death, Villa Dianella chose to honor him in a special way: by bringing back to his homeland the Malvasia di Candia grapes from Leonardo\u2019s original vineyard, located at the Atellani House in Milan. This is how La Vigna di Leonardo a Vinci was born \u2014 a project that brings together agriculture, culture, and creativity. <\/p>\n

Today, guests can visit this symbolic vineyard and take part in experiences inspired by Leonardo\u2019s legacy: from tastings of historical wines \u2014 like l\u2019Orpicchio and l\u2019Acquarosa (the latter based on a recipe from the Atlantic Codex) \u2014 to real “Leonardian” cooking classes or private dinners in Leonardo\u2019s vineyard.<\/p>\n

Leonardian Cooking Classes<\/strong>
\nThese lessons tell the story and reimagine the dishes of the time, showcasing utensils inspired by Leonardo\u2019s drawings and fun facts about the cuisine of Ludovico il Moro\u2019s court.
