Uva Canajola - Black Canaiolo

by Giorgio Gallesio

Add to your home some of the tradition of Italian winemaking through this botanical illustration of Uva Canajola, which has been known as the Black Canaiolo or Vitis Vinifera Etrusca in the past. First published in the years from 1817 to 1839 in the renowned book “Pomona Italiana” by Giorgio Gallesio, this artwork is a part of Europe's history.

Before Sangiovese took hold of the Chianti Hills, the Canaiolo Nero was the grape to be reckoned with due to its deep flavor. Renowned for its partial drying process without rotting, this grape played an important role in the ancient “governo” method of making wine during those harsh winters.
