Natural Sin: In the places and among the wines that fascinated Lorenzo de' Medici
The "Vermilion" of the Magnificent. Accompanied by the spring breeze, we will embark on a journey to discover the places where, as early as the Renaissance, the "vermilion" that Lorenzo de' Medici liked and that was appreciated by the refined Florentine palates ripened. Suggestions aroused by a wine that has marked the history of Chianti, accompanying those "sins of gluttony" recounted by poets and writers. Passions that a descendant of the famous lineage has today passed on to the new generations. Charm, culture and a hint of mystery surface from the ancient walls of Badia a Coltibuono. The "sins of gluttony" are taken care of by the renowned Scuola di Cucina founded by Lorenza de' Medici.
Wines, oils and gastronomic proposals united by a common thread rooted in history: respect for human beings and the environment.
