Garnet robed with a faintly orange rim, though still fresh and vibrant. Gaja’s Ca’Marcanda Ca’Marcanda is a deeply perfumed Bordeaux blend with the scent of wild lilacs, woodsmoke, espresso, and plums. From the stony Ca’Marcanda estate in the Bolgeri, this elegantly crafted red is silky and rich, with fully integrated oak. Dark, with a nice vein of acidity that lends definition all the way to a startlingly long finish that is drenched in roasted black cherries and toast.
