Gaja Ca’Marcanda Magari is a vibrant and full-bodied Italian red from a family-owned winery, made from a blend of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Angelo Gaja purchased the Ca’Marcanda estate in 1996. Located in Castagneto Carducci in Bolgheri, the family set about planting the property with international grape varieties.

The vineyard blocks that make up this blend are further away from the nearby sea, closer to the fertile hillside. The loamy, clay-rich soils here are known as terre brune (dark brown earth). They ensure the creation of round wines with mineral characters.

Grape Varieties: 60% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot

The different grape varieties are vinified separately, with 12 months ageing in oak, prior to blending. The wine rests for several months in bottles to allow the blend to harmonise before release.

Enjoy Gaja Ca’Marcanda Magari with grilled and roasted red meats, rich stews and mature cheeses.

Producer’s Tasting Notes

Glowing and intense colour. Polished, refined, focused and expressive, with notes of eucalyptus, pepper and pine.

A typical notes of the local Mediterranean bushes and berries rise from the glass.

Fine-grained tannins surround a sleek core of black cherry, blackberry and liquorice flavours, with nice fresh nuances then gliding through a long and expressive finish.

The harmony between vibrant acidity and refined tannins is a premise for an excellent ageing potential.
