Toscana-Gaja-Promis-Ca-Marcanda

Since 1996 and the purchase of this Bolgheri property, Angelo Gaja has planted more than 120 hectares of vines on the brown lands of Ca'Marcanda. The star grape variety of Tuscany, Sangiovese, and international grape varieties are combined. Among them, a little more than half Merlot, completed with a third of Syrah and 10% Sangiovese. An atypical blend, in which each grape variety has been vinified separately. The macerations last a fortnight before aging for twelve months in old oak barrels. After the final blend, the wine matures six months in the bottle before marketing.Promis is above all a promise of excellence perfectly fulfilled with an intensely fruity wine with a very elegant structure. The nose evokes rose and violet, then takes on an almost iodized hue before evolving towards notes of eucalyptus and pine. The palate is fresh, marked by red fruits, framed by polished tannins. A touch of spice on the finish closes the tasting of this wine, which can be enjoyed from its youth.
