The Story of Wine: Palmarès Brut

The 2011 It marked a real milestone for Tenuta Gorghi Tondi: it was the year the winery decided to try its hand at sparkling wine production, officially bringing the Sala family's bubbles to life. To christen this new, exciting project, a word of Latin origin with a powerful and unequivocal meaning was chosen: “Honours”, or “Worthy of victory”.

The choice of name also stems from a small family anecdote. Michele Sala, the company's founder, shared a great passion for Formula 1 with his daughter Clara. It was during one of the televised award ceremonies after a race, while in the cellar they were looking for an evocative name for the new sparkling wine, that the word roll of honour — which indicates a driver's list of victories — appeared to be the perfect choice to represent the project's spirit.

The idea behind this Metodo Martinotti (or Charmat) sparkling wine was as simple as it was ambitious: to demonstrate the extraordinary versatility of Grillo, the most typical and precious white berry grape of the region. The aim was to transform this indigenous vine into an elegant sparkling wine, capable of being a global ambassador for Sicily's vocation for sparkling wine production.

To achieve this milestone, the company selected organic grapes from a unique vineyard, capable of combining two opposite yet complementary souls: on one hand, the unspoiled and protected nature of the WWF Nature Reserve “Lago Preola and Gorghi Tondi”, on the other hand, the constant breath of the sea and its fresh, iodised breezes.

Today, Palmarès Brut is not just a sparkling wine, but the emblem of celebration and excellence at Gorghi Tondi. It is the liquid story of a challenge overcome, a luminous glass that celebrates the estate's elegance, love for nature, and the authentic joy of being together.
