Camarcanda, Ca'Marcanda, Gaja - 2018

Provenance: Tuscany
Appellation: Bolgheri
Domain: Ca'Marcanda
Grape variety(ies): 80% de cabernet sauvignon, 20% de cabernet franc
On-call time: 20 years

The arid soil of the vineyard here gives this great Bolgherie vintage by Angelo Gaja a striking complexity and structure. On the nose, it exudes aromas of barely candied black fruits, kirsch and sweet spices. The wine is full, textured and refined. It develops its strength in its youth on a finish of great energy, tannic and vibrant, very Italian and above all very Tuscan!

Viticulture

Ca'Marcanda takes its name from the Piedmontese dialect and refers to the long negotiations conducted by Angelo Gaja to convince the former owners to sell this estate, which was previously composed of olive trees, orchards, cattle and a small part of vineyards. This wine comes from a light soil (limestone and skeletal), ideal for producing long-keeping wines.

Oenology

The three grape varieties are vinified separately. They are blended after malolactic fermentation and aged for eighteen months in non-new oak barrels, followed by twelve months of bottle ageing before release. First vintage produced: 2000.
