Dante Alighieri connections to wine

1 week ago 15

Hi, I’m doing an architecture school project based in Mulazzo, Italy, where Dante lived after being exiled from Florence and I’m thinking of creating a winery/vineyard etc. but I want to have connections to Dante as he is very important to the village. Does anyone know if there are any good quotes or specific connections to wine with Dante, the Divine Comedy and his exile from Florence etc.

On our trip to to Mulazzo we had an overload of information about Dante and his connection to the Malaspina family but there was already places dedicated to this so I was hoping to take a different angle.

I was also wondering if there were any specific connections to architecture within the Divine Comedy? “The Danteum” is an unbuilt monument dedicated to him and I think it’s an interesting project so I wanted to know if anyone has any information on the intersection between architecture and Dante.
