Gorgona Bianco
Frescobaldi
Press Review
" Lime zest, jasmine, kiwi, waxed lemon, stones, juniper berries and aniseed on the nose. Almonds, too. Vibrant, layered and mineral with medium body and a lightly waxy texture. Long, mineral and thought-provoking. Drink now or hold. "
Press Review
" 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. "
Winemaking
The 2020 growing year on Gorgona started off with frequent rains, but temperatures were never excessive, thanks to constant sea breezes. As usual on this island, the vines started their growing-cycle early, budding out in the first week in March. A rather enjoyable spring of mild, sunny days encouraged vine development, followed by a somewhat cooler than normal summer. Temperatures rose starting in late July, but the island’s unique, sea-tempered climate, plus some isolated showers, ensured that the clusters were in perfect shape by harvest. An equally sun-blest, but well-ventilated September bought excellent levels of polyphenols, along with intense, elegant aromatic complexes.
