Founded in 1973 by Roberto Bricolo, Gorgo is now led by his daughter Roberta, who transitioned the estate to certified organic farming in 2014. The winery is celebrated for its commitment to traditional local methods and a winemaking philosophy that prioritizes freshness, directness, and a distinct mineral character.

Wine Description

This full bodied and powerful Amarone presents a deep ruby red colour with violet highlights that transition toward garnet as it ages. The complex bouquet offers an inviting array of plums, blackberries, and ripe dried red fruits, underscored by toasted almonds, spicy hints, and nuances of licorice. On the palate, the wine is rounded and rich, featuring a velvety texture and an elegant balance between its structured alcohol content and refreshing acidity. Composed primarily of Corvina Veronese, Corvinone, and Rondinella, this wine demonstrates superb complexity and a long, persistent finish.
