Internationally renowned, multi-Michelin starred chef Gordon Ramsay today announces his own
contemporary range of Italian table wines: Gordon Ramsay Italian Collection. Created alongside
world-famous winemaker Alberto Antonini, the collection combines Gordon’s passion with the
heart and soul of Italian winemaking. The red, white and rose wines are available from Wines Of The
World,
“Running a 3 Michelin star restaurant for over 20 years means I have had the joy of tasting some of
the finest wines in the world. Wine-making has always fascinated me; it’s a magical process where
tradition, passion, and science are blended together and captured in one stunning bottle. Italy and
Italian wines have a special place in my heart. Tana and I have spent some incredibly happy times in
this amazing country and many of those moments were made even better by a beautiful glass of
wine. When it came to launching my own wine range, it was very important to set the same
standards and quality as I expect in my restaurants. 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 Ireland love it as much as I do.” Gordon Ramsay
Years in development and driven by memorable times spent in Italy, Gordon’s ambition was to
source only the very best ingredients from the country. Alberto’s reputation for contemporary
winemaking while simultaneously respecting traditions struck a chord with Gordon; their
partnership resulted in a pioneering decision to blend fruit from two different regions, Tuscany and
Abruzzo. Breaking down the barriers associated with cross-regional blending in Italy was key in
achieving the desired styles and flavours.
The Intenso Rosso 2020 is a vibrant ruby red in colour with aromas of fresh redcurrant, blackberry
and a touch of flint. This wine has depth and texture on the palate with approachable tannins and a
soft and succulent finish. Perfect to pair with grilled Tuscan steak or a rich tomato ragu.
The Vibrante Bianco 2020 is pale straw in colour with notes of white flowers and aromas of fresh
green apple and white peach. This wine is vibrant and juicy on the palate. It has a refreshing acidity
with a long mineral finish and can be enjoyed with seafood risotto or a fresh caprese salad.
The Elegante Rosato 2020 is pale pink in colour with fresh red cherry aromas. This wine has a
fragrant floral palate with gentle tannins and an elegant finish. The perfect accompaniment to
chicken cacciatore, a freshly roasted vegetable fettuccine or simply chilled as an aperitivo.
The Gordon Ramsay Italian Collection range available here at Wines of The World.
