Sensations
Intense ruby red colour with garnet highlights. Intense aromas of underbrush, cherry, tobacco and even more delicate fruit tones than the traditional Brunello. An austere wine on the palate but with a softness and a very elegant tannin...thanks to Amadeus? Perhaps, but you be the judge!

Host information
Paradiso di Frassina, an ancient farm dating back to the Middle Ages, is located a few kilometres from Montalcino, one of the best areas for the production of Brunello di Montalcino.
Vigneron Giancarlo Cignozzi says: "In 1999 my dream was to create a small winery on a human scale, where I could realise an innovative project that I had been cherishing for a long time ... namely to promote research into the beneficial effects of musical frequencies in the vineyard!
Today, more than 50 loudspeakers are playing Mozart's music 24 hours a day. Together with a number of universities, we are studying the effects of sound waves on vines and grapes, with surprising results: the vines are healthier and stronger without the use of chemicals, and the grapes are richer in polyphenols!
We are a certified organic farm since 2008 and we try to respect the terroir as much as possible, producing wines that are as natural as possible and respectful of the characteristics of Sangiovese Grosso, the main grape variety of Brunello di Montalcino!
