While Chianti Classico red wines have earned the estate world-wide renown, Vignamaggio is legendary for other reasons too. It is said that Mona Lisa, Leonardo da Vinci’s muse, was born here in 1479, and today Vignamaggio’s finest Chianti is named in her honour. It is also said that the term ‘Chianti’ was first coined in 1404 in reference to Vignamaggio’s wine. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003eToday the estate makes wines reflecting both the traditions and potential of the Chianti terroir, using traditional local grapes Sangiovese and Canaiolo for some wines, while others include proportions of international grapes Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah. Vignamaggio also makes tiny amounts of the delectable dessert wine vin santo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"c1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vignamaggio.it\/english\/wine-oil.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVilla Vignamaggio Website\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"vignamaggio-chianti-classico-terre-di-prenzano","title":"Vignamaggio Chianti Classico Terre di Prenzano 2022","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVignamaggio's Chianti Classico Terre di Prenzano is made from 100% Sangiovese that see's approximately one year in large wooden casks and then several further months in bottle prior to release.
