Arte a San Leonardo was born from the desire of Anselmo Guerrieri Gonzaga and Ilaria Tronchetti Provera to create a dialogue between the languages of contemporary art and the history and identity of the San Leonardo Estate.
The project involves a different artist each year, who is asked to create an artist's label for a limited series of bottles of San Leonardo from the current vintage. Each edition of Arte a San Leonardo symbolically begins and ends at the beginning of spring, following the seasonal cycle of wine production, and unfolds in different moments: residency, research, design and production. As a continuation of the residency experience, the artist designs the labels, reinterpreting the classic San Leonardo label.
'The Deep Time Revolution' is the title of the work that Marzia Migliora has created for the 2024 edition, for the 2019 vintage of San Leonardo.
What the critics say:
"The 2019 San Leonardo is impossible to ignore, embodying everything I love about this distinctly northern Italian Bordeaux blend. Masses of white pepper, sage, incense, sandy earth and fresh tobacco give way to dusty red currants. This is a model of elegance yet salty and savory to the core, with mineral-laden red and black fruits that flow across silky textures. The 2019 finishes classically dry with a crunchy tannic bite yet maintains an impossible freshness as savory herbal tones slowly fade. This is stunning, recalling the absolute top vintages I've ever tasted from San Leonardo."
