Description
On the island of Gorgona, the smallest of the Tuscan archipelago, 29 km west of Livorno, there is a grape variety of Vermentino and Ansonica, varieties that have acclimatised perfectly to the island.
"Gorgona" is a white wine born of the collaboration between Marchesi de' Frescobald and the island's penitentiary institute. Frescobaldi's agronomists and oenologists have collaborated with the inmates, transferring their professional skills to them, which they can use at the end of their period of imprisonment in order to reintegrate more easily into society.
The Gorgona wine comes from a small vineyard of about one hectare, located in the only area protected from strong sea winds, in the heart of an amphitheatre overlooking the sea.
The vineyard is managed according to organic farming methods by the prison's inmates.
