Portocanale Di Cesenatico

Portocanale Di Cesenatico 1502 Rosé is a rosé wine from the Leonardo da Vinci winery, embodying the refined and elegant flavors characteristic of the Romagna region in Italy. Made from the renowned Sangiovese grape and inspired by the sketch of the Cesenatico harbor, this wine evokes a gentle, romantic feeling, transporting drinkers to fascinating stories about the life of the genius Leonardo Da Vinci.

From the Poetic Sketch of Cesenatico Harbor

Portocanale Di Cesenatico is the only rosé wine in the 1502 Da Vinci in Romagna collection by Cantine Leonardo Da Vinci, with each wine telling a story about Leonardo's journey in Romagna. The drawing of the coastal village and Cesenatico harbor is the inspiration for this wine.

Cesenatico is one of the four locations associated with four different periods (Cesena, Cesenatico, Faenza, and Imola) during Leonardo's trip to Romagna in 1502. This harbor dates back to 1314, and it was here that Duke Cesare Borgia tasked Leonardo with surveying and improving the harbor's infrastructure. The Portocanale Di Cesenatico sketch is one of the important records in Da Vinci's travelogue about his exploration and renovation of this place.

In fact, Leonardo made two sketches of this location. However, the producer chose the painting depicting the harbor and the nearby village from a top-down perspective to put on the Portocanale Di Cesenatico wine label. From the wine bottle design to the color and flavor of the wine, everything carries the poetic breath of the Cesenatico coastal region.
