Colour deep dark ruby red |
|
Bouquet fine, clean, fruit and violets, floral tones of rose and rhubarb note. |
|
Flavour Beautiful, stylish palate, very fresh in its expression, the fruit profile displays a delightful mix of ripe fruit and balsamic scrub. The floral notes persist on the palate, mirroring the aromatic nose. The wine is elegant with a long soft finish. |
Ca’Marcanda, Gaja’s estate in Bolgher, was born in 1996 propelled by Angelo Gaja’s ambition to challenge himself with Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
The name reminds of the Italian word promessa, that means promise. A promise, exactly as an up-and-comer that, with its young and bold character, brings along a fresh breeze of liveliness and zest. It recalls, as well, the Gaja’s family commitment meant to start a valuableproject in Tuscany.
