Gordon Ramsay Intenso Rosso is a unique cross-regional Italian red wine blending Abruzzo and Tuscan grapes. It features aromas of red and black fruit with a soft, succulent finish. Serve this wine with a grilled steak or rich tomato ragu for a perfect pairing.
Gordon Ramsay's Award-Winning Intenso Rosso has a bright, intense ruby red colour with aromas of fresh red and black fruit, such as blueberry and blackberry, along with a touch of flint. On the palate it is very textural with depth and juiciness, intense and approachable tannins. The finish is soft and succulent. A unique cross-regional blend from the rugged coastal region of Abruzzo, famed for its reliability to produce consistent and good quality wines, with Tuscan Sangiovese bringing freshness and depth to the blend.
It was a huge pleasure to collaborate on this project with Alberto Antonini, one of Italy's greatest winemakers. I'm very proud of what we've created and hope food and wine lovers across the world will love it as much as I do. - Gordon Ramsay

Regional information: A unique cross regional blend from the rugged coastal region of Abruzzo famed for its reliability to produce consistent and good quality wines with Tuscan Vermentino bringing minerality and freshness to the blend. The average age of the vineyards is 10 years with the fruit picked using a combination of hand and machine harvest.
Vinification: The fruit was destemmed and gently pressed prior to a 48 hour cold soak at 12°C to extract soft tannins and primary, bright flavours. Fermentation was at 25°C and the cap was continuously pumped over to avoid over extraction. 20% of the wine spent 9-12 months in 5 year old large oak casks and the remaining wine was aged in a mixture of concrete and stainless steel tanks.
