Description
Gorgona Rosso 2022: the Tuscan red from Frescobaldi with a marine character
Gorgona Rosso 2022 by Frescobaldi is a red wine with a strong identity, born on the Costa Toscana IGT from a unique project for its human and territorial value. Made with Sangiovese and Vermentino Nero, it expresses an authentic, Mediterranean, and refined style, capable of uniting freshness, savoriness, and harmony in a sip of great personality.
Territory and wine style
The wine is born in Gorgona, the prison island of the Tuscan Archipelago, in a vineyard cultivated organically under the supervision of Frescobaldi. The presence of the sea, the winds, and the constant saline influence define the profile of this red from the Costa Toscana, making it recognizable for its elegance and tasting tension. Gorgona Rosso 2022 tells the story of an extreme and fascinating territory, where the work in the vineyard translates into a wine with a sincere, solid character deeply connected to its island.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense and brilliant red color. On the nose, it offers an articulated bouquet, where Mediterranean herbs intertwine with notes of spices and ripe red fruits. Sensations of rosemary, sage, mastic, star anise, blueberry, currant, and blackberries emerge in a clear and coherent ensemble. On the palate, the sip is enveloping, warm, and well-supported by a pleasant marine savoriness. The structure is balanced, the profile harmonious, and the correspondence between nose and mouth is very convincing, with a clean and persistent finish.
Recommended pairings
Gorgona Rosso 2022 pairs well with flavorful but not overly structured dishes, such as roasted meats, lamb, light game, noble poultry, and Mediterranean cuisine preparations with aromatic herbs. Excellent also with medium-intensity aged cheeses, pasta with ragù, pappardelle with mushrooms, and fish recipes with a spicy or savory component, if served in a gourmet style. Its savoriness makes it interesting even with more complex seafood dishes.
Serving temperature
The ideal serving temperature for Gorgona Rosso 2022 is between 16 and 18 °C. If possible, it is advisable to open it a little in advance to enhance the aromatic expression and highlight the dialogue between fruit, medicinal herbs, and saline notes.
