Ca'Marcanda Promis 2018
Bolgheri, Tuscany, ItalyGaja in Tuscany is Ca' Marcanda, and the family created the proprietary name Promis to denote its commitment and hope for the property. The grapes are grown in Bolgheri and neighbouring Bibbona on rich, dark clay and lime soils. 2018 was a stellar year. If elegance and finesse are in your wheelhouse, this wine has it in spades. The mix is 55/35/10 merlot, syrah, and sangiovese. This is Bolgheri savoury with rich, dark fruit, smoke, black cherries and complex smoky tarry flavours that spill across the juicy palate. The tannins are Bolgheri silky and, while you can drink this now, you can hold it indefinitely. Very fine.Tasted: 05 May 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $73.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
