Description
Gorgona 2022: fresh and mineral Tuscan white from Frescobaldi
Gorgona 2022 Bianco Costa Toscana IGT by Frescobaldi is a white wine with a marine and Mediterranean character, born from a unique and recognizable context. The blend of Vermentino and Ansonica expresses a rich, bright aromatic profile that is consistent with its origin, offering an elegant interpretation of the Tuscan Coast. It is a bottle designed for those seeking a wine with personality, capable of uniting freshness, savoriness, and depth of flavor in a harmonious and original whole.
Territory and wine style
Gorgona comes from the Island of Gorgona, the smallest of the Tuscan Archipelago, west of Livorno. The vineyard, set in an environment dominated by the sea and brackish winds, gives the wine a strong territorial imprint, characterized by energy, tension, and iodized hints. The Costa Toscana IGT designation enhances a white that interprets the sea in a direct yet refined manner, with a recognizable and modern style. The collaboration with Frescobaldi adds value to a winemaking project that combines expertise, identity, and attention to detail.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a straw yellow color with golden reflections and crystalline brilliance. The olfactory profile is broad and intense: white and yellow flowers emerge, along with notes of Mediterranean flora, exotic fruits like mango, pineapple, and passion fruit, followed by cedar and mandarin. The finish is clean, mineral, and iodized. On the palate, it is savory, fresh, smooth, and of great persistence, with a clean closure and a pleasant correspondence between nose and mouth.
Recommended pairings
Gorgona 2022 pairs well with seafood dishes, raw fish, tartare, carpaccio, delicate first courses based on shellfish, and seafood risottos. It is also excellent with baked fish, stuffed squid, platters of fresh cheeses, and Mediterranean preparations based on vegetables. Its savoriness makes it suitable for simple yet quality recipes, where it can accompany without overpowering and enhance the marine component of the dish.
Serving temperature
Serve Gorgona 2022 at a temperature between 10 and 12 °C to enhance its freshness, aromas, and saline tension. It does not require long aeration: it is sufficient to open it shortly before serving, in order to preserve its aromatic precision and immediate pleasantness.
