Frescobaldi’s Gorgona white wine shows a beautiful straw-coloured hue marked by wisps of gold in the glass. On the nose, zesty aromas of citrus, passion fruit, grass and a touch of hay lead to refreshing and harmonious palate laden with flavors of lemon rind, tangy passion fruit and sea spray. This light- to medium-bodied wine finishes bright and long, showing a distinct saline quality on the finish.
Winery
Gorgona has a straw-yellow colour with golden reflections and crystalline brilliance. The bouquet is an explosion of Mediterranean flora: white and yellow flowers with a predominance of daisy, camomile, hawthorn, mimosa and broom. This is followed by clear hints of exotic fruit, passion fruit, mango and pineapple. The fruity notes unfold seamlessly and citrusy hints of citron and tangerine soon emerge. The olfactory finish is mineral, dominated by iodised notes. It is savoury on the palate and at the same time fresh and lingering. Its persistence is remarkable and the taste-olfactory response is total. Every year Gorgona amazes us and surpasses itself in the complexity and intensity of the organoleptic sensations it gives us. Such a unique place could only generate an extraordinary wine.

Region: Tuscany

The central Italian region of Tuscany is widely understood to be one of the world's most famous and highly regarded wine regions. The beautiful rolling hillsides and medieval towns and castles which are a key feature of the area are also home to many of Europe's finest wineries, and extremely high quality vineyards growing the distinctive Sangiovese and Vernaccia grape varietals which are the flavorful backbone of Tuscany's wonderful red and white wines. For almost three thousand years, this region has been recognized as an ideal home for wine production on a large scale, and the ancient Etruscans, Greeks and Romans all noticed that fine grape varietals flourished on the unique soils and under the hot sunshine which typifies the area. Today, Tuscany is home to a wide range of wines, from the traditional to the complex, but all dedicated to excellent flavors and aromas, and maintaining the region's international reputation.

Country: Italy

It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.
