Description

Curiosity

“Leda” with its name is a tribute to Greek mythology and precisely to the myth of “Leda and the swan”. Leda is the name of the charming queen of Sparta, daughter of Testio, whom Zeus fell in love with so much that in order to see her he came down from heaven to join her. While Leda was sleeping on the banks of a small lake, she was awakened by the fluttering of the wings of a very white swan; around there was the scent of ragweed that stunned her and the swan with its sinuous neck lovingly caressed her face, her hair and her arms. It was Zeus who, in order to approach and seduce her, turned into a swan.

Author Suggestion

“A bottle of Leda, a raw red prawn on burrata, sitting for dinner on the port of Anzio.” Federico Artico, Winemaker
