Tenuta Gorghi Tondi s.a.s. di Annamaria e Clara Agata Sala - Soc. Agr. - C.da San Nicola, sn 91026 Mazara del Vallo (TP)
This pure Zibibbo comes from the estate's vineyards crossed by the 12th meridian. An ideal place for the cultivation of vines and the production of quality wines for thousands of years. Zibibbo, in particular, is one of the oldest varieties cultivated on the island, capable of giving the resulting wines fresh citrus and floral scents. DOC Sicilia, this white wine produced by Tenuta Gorghi Tondi is certified organic. The grapes used to produce it come from the estate's youngest vineyards, with a density of 4,600 vines per hectare and a production of about 80 quintals of grapes. Harvesting takes place during the second ten days of August. The must ferments in steel at a controlled temperature and, at the end of processing, the wine matures, again in steel, on its fine lees for about 5 months before being bottled. In the glass it has a beautiful straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. The nose is enveloping and aromatic, pleasantly fruity, with notes of almond, apricot, orange blossom, and sage. In the mouth, however, it is immediately pleasantly fragrant, with a perfect balance between acidity and savouriness. Ideal as an aperitif, served chilled it is excellent with fish dishes, especially shellfish, urchins and oysters.
Clara and Annamaria Sala are two true women of wine. They are the daughters of art and today they are the face, young and sunny, of a beautiful Sicilian winery. We are talking about Gorghi Tondi, an estate located in Mazzara del Vallo, within a natural context of rare beauty. We are, in fact, inside a WWF protected oasis, where the blue of the sky and the sea blend with the whiteness of the beach and the green of the vineyards that reach just a few metres from the shoreline. An enchanting place to visit where, after having quenched the spirit, one also has the opportunity to taste wines of great elegance. Gorghi Tondi was born from the love of nature of Dora, Annamaria and Clara's great-grandmother. In 2000, father Michele, with over forty years' experience in the world of wine, decided, together with his wife Doretta and daughters, to start his own company, focusing on the production of organic and sulphite-free wines. The grapes are cultivated between the sea and the land, within the integral nature reserve Lago Preola e Gorghi Tondi, in Mazara del Vallo. 130 hectares, cradled by the sea breeze. Unique and unrepeatable environmental conditions.
