Gaja Ca'Marcanda Magari is a polished, refined Bordeaux-style blend from Tuscany's prestigious Bolgheri DOP region. Crafted from vineyard blocks on the fertile hillside with loamy, clay-rich terre brune (dark brown earth) soils, this wine showcases the elegance and mineral character that define premium Bolgheri wines, with exceptional ageing potential through 2030. Why You'll Love It This is Bolgheri winemaking at its finest—polished, focused, and expressive with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity that promise excellent ageing potential. Produced by Gaja's Ca'Marcanda estate, one of Italy's most prestigious wine families, this wine combines Bordeaux varieties with Tuscan terroir to create something truly special. The harmony between vibrant acidity and refined tannins, along with 12 months in oak and additional bottle ageing, delivers exceptional quality and complexity. Vineyard & Production Sourced from vineyard blocks further from the sea, closer to the fertile hillside where loamy, clay-rich terre brune (dark brown earth) soils create round wines with mineral character. The 2020 vintage featured a dry winter, late frost challenges in March, and hot months with significant night-time temperature variations. Tramontana winds and heat peaks accompanied the grapes to full ripeness. The three varieties ferment and macerate separately for around 15 days, then age for 12 months in oak before blending and several months of bottle ageing before release. Tasting Notes Glowing and intense colour. Polished, refined, focused, and expressive with notes of eucalyptus, pepper, pine, and typical Mediterranean bush aromas. Fine-grained tannins surround a sleek core of black cherry, blackberry, and liquorice flavours, with fresh nuances gliding through a long, expressive finish. Perfect Pairings A perfect match for grilled meats, wild game, roasted lamb, aged cheeses, or rich stews. Also excellent with Florentine steak, venison, duck breast, or hearty Italian cuisine. Grape V
