2022 Frescobaldi, Gorgona Costa Toscana & 2022 Poggio alle Gazze, Ornellaia - Tuscany - 2 Bottles (0.75L)

2022 Costa Toscana IGT "The Tuscan archipelago is an earthly paradise of which Gorgona is the wildest and most luminescent pearl of Aphrodite. Its apparent surliness belies the indescribable seduction of scents and silences, and a nature that beguiles visitors with its strength and eternal puberty.... And all around, water and salt, to reflect the messages of the sky, to tighten the laces to the sails." (A.Bocelli - 2014) The Gorgona Project was launched in August 2012 thanks to the collaboration between Frescobaldi and Gorgona, the only island prison in Europe... Here, inmates spend the last period of their sentences, working in contact with nature to develop skills that facilitate their reintegration into work and society. The project begins around a small vineyard, in the heart of an amphitheatre overlooking the sea, and aims to allow the inmates to gain hands-on experience in the field of viticulture, with the support and supervision of Frescobaldi agronomists and oenologists. Today, the vineyard covers an area of two hectares, including an initial one and a second planted in 2015. It is from this vineyard of Vermentino and Ansonica that Gorgona is produced, the result of this unique place, of man's work and a symbol of hope and freedom.  The Gorgona label is intended to be an "extraordinary edition" of the island, portraying a different aspect of it each year. With Gorgona 2022 we have once again focused on the extraordinary biodiversity that this tiny island manages to preserve. The eleventh vintage of Gorgona will be about orchids, many varieties of which bloom on the island at different times. The grape variety for Gorgona is grown on soil rich in iron, on a small vineyard of two hectares, wonderfully exposed to the east and protected from the winds. There is one vineyard planted in 1999, and subsequently in 2015 and 2018, where the vermentino and ansonica grapes have traditionally been the undisputed key varieties of this extraordinary wine.Gorgona embodies all the essence of the island. Poggio alle gazze 2022: Poggio alle Gazze by Tenuta dell'Ornellaia is an elegant and pleasantly fresh white wine with Mediterranean aromatic traits. This label represents the desire to express the exceptional qualities of the estate also in the production of white wines as well as reds, which have now become of great international fame. It is produced with predominantly Sauvignon Blanc, Viogner and Vermentino grapes, to which a small percentage of Petit Manseng is sometimes added, depending on the vintage.
