Description

Gorgona, the real island!

Produced by the inmates on the island of Gorgona, from Sangiovese and Vermentino Nero grapes


The Tuscan Archipelago is an earthly paradise, of which Gorgona is the wildest, most luminescent of Aphrodite's pearls. Beyond its apparent sullenness lies the indescribable seduction of perfumes and silences, and a natural beauty that moves you with its strength and eternal growth... And around it, water and salt reflect messages from the heavens and bind laces to the sails. (A. Bocelli - 2014) THE GORGONA PROJECT The Gorgona project began in August 2012 thanks to the partnership between Frescobaldi and Gorgona, the only island penitentiary in Europe. Inmates spend the final years of their sentence here, working and living in close contact with nature, while developing skills to support their return to society and the workforce. Focussing on a small vineyard at the centre of an amphitheatre overlooking the sea, the project aims to provide inmates with practical experience in the areas of grape cultivation and winemaking by working closely with Frescobaldi agronomists and oenologists in the island's vineyards. The Gorgona Rosso label is dedicated to hope and the desire for rehabilitation, with the wish that the inmates' wine-growing experience can help them turn the page upon re-entry into society.
