"A red, rusty gate blocked the opening of the trail."
Explanation: "red" and "rusty" are coordinate adjectives (you can say "red and rusty gate" or "rusty red gate"), so they should be separated by a comma. The other sentences use adjective + noun-type (material, flavor, color) combos that are not coordinate.
