Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Il Paradiso di Frassina
This Brunello di Montalcino results from a careful selection of the best grapes from Paradiso di Frassina’s vineyards. Its notable elegance is due to the favorable location of the vineyards lying north of Montalcino, in a cooler area in which the vines grow to the vibrations of Mozart’s symphonies, as the label suggests. A balanced and refined red, with a delicate and long finish.
