Paradisone

PARADISONE

If you blink you could easily drive past the 2ha of vines that Paradisone works organically. This is a tiny estate and winery making less than 850 cases of wine a year. The 2ha are divided into 5 CRU that are obsessed over. The small size of the estate allows them to work each vineyard row by row at just the right time. They harvest less than 100 kg/ha and, here, there is no such thing as a second harvest. Only the best grapes are used. I was impressed by every wine we tasted. The Rosso di Montalcino was such a clean, bright wine so full of pure cherry fruit and the Brunello, just a baby, was already showing very well with black cherry, plum, date, baking spice, anise. These wines are just starting to make their way to the US and I was lucky to find them at this early stage. They are starting to get a lot of attention, but will not grow in size or production. Very limited!! We will be doing an extensive tasting of past and future vintages in April. Stay tuned! I plan to announce reservations for upcoming vintages after Vinitaly.
