Gorgona White 2021 Costa Toscana IGT Frescobaldi

Gorgona Bianco 2021 Costa Toscana IGT Frescobaldi

Gorgona Bianco 2021 is a Tuscan white wine of great identity, crafted by Frescobaldi, which originates from a unique project in terms of history, location, and human value. From the Island of Gorgona, a small gem of the Tuscan Archipelago, comes a wine of sea, sun, and wind, made from Vermentino and Ansonica, varieties perfectly in tune with the territory.

Territory and wine style

The designation is Costa Toscana IGT and the vineyard is located in a particularly sheltered position, in the heart of a natural amphitheater overlooking the sea. Here, viticulture expresses an authentically island character, marked by marine excursions, Mediterranean scents, and a pronounced savory imprint. Gorgona Bianco 2021 is produced in very limited quantities and is also distinguished by its connection to the social project born in collaboration with the island's Penal Institute, which adds depth and uniqueness to each bottle.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a bright straw-yellow color, enriched by brilliant golden reflections. The olfactory profile is broad and multifaceted: Mediterranean shrubs, broom, mastic, and aromatic herbs emerge, followed by notes of white flowers such as hawthorn, chamomile, and freesia. The fruity part recalls banana, pineapple, and exotic fruit, while the finish closes on fresh citrus tones of grapefruit and cedar. On the palate, it impresses with its pronounced savoriness, supported by freshness and softness in perfect balance, with an overall sensation that is full, harmonious, and persistent.

Recommended pairings

Gorgona Bianco 2021 pairs very effectively with seafood dishes, raw fish, tartare, carpaccio, shellfish, and seafood. Its freshness and savoriness also make it ideal with delicate fish pasta dishes, seafood risottos, seasonal vegetables, Mediterranean preparations, and fresh cheeses. It is a versatile white, capable of enhancing essential and fragrant cuisine without overshadowing its balances.

Serving temperature

Serve Gorgona Bianco 2021 at an ideal temperature of 10-12 °C, in order to enhance both the aromatic component and its saline energy. It does not require long aeration but can benefit from a few minutes in the glass to open up best.
