Tenuta Gorghi Tondi Zibibbo 2024

The Tenuta Gorghi Tondi Zibibbo 2024 is an expressive white wine from sunny Sicily, made from 100% Zibibbo, a grape variety known for its intense aromas and Mediterranean charm. This organic wine comes from the vineyards of Tenuta Gorghi Tondi, a family estate located within a protected nature reserve near Mazara del Vallo, where the proximity of the sea and steady coastal breezes create a unique microclimate. The result is a wine that captures that natural vibrancy perfectly: fragrant, lively, and full of personality.

In the glass, the Zibibbo 2024 shows a bright straw-yellow color with delicate greenish reflections. The nose opens with exuberant aromas of citrus—especially cedar, bergamot, and lemon peel—followed by notes of white blossom, orange flower, and a hint of sage. The bouquet is seductive yet never heavy, remaining elegant and precise, with a fine balance between fruitiness and herbal freshness.

On the palate, the wine continues its lively expression. The first impression is crisp and refreshing, showing a beautiful tension between soft aromatic roundness and a vibrant acidity. The texture is smooth, almost silky, while maintaining a core of freshness throughout. As it opens, subtle mineral nuances emerge, evoking sea air and limestone—clear reflections of its coastal terroir. The finish is long, clean, and invigorating, leaving a pleasant sense of purity and balance.

The Zibibbo 2024 is a modern interpretation of an ancient Sicilian grape, crafted with respect for tradition yet presented in a fresh, contemporary style. With its organic farming practices, hand harvesting, and minimal intervention in the cellar, Tenuta Gorghi Tondi once again demonstrates that sustainability and high quality can go hand in hand.

This wine radiates the essence of Sicily—sunshine, sea breeze, and natural elegance. It tells a story of nature, heritage, and refinement: a glass that evokes long summer days, warm winds, and the scent of citrus groves along the island’s coast. An authentic expression of Sicily in its most aromatic, fresh, and harmonious form.
