Ca’Marcanda Promis Toscana IGP 2021

From the 2021 vintage which was very dry but moderately cool resulting in wines with great colour, concentration and acidity. A blend of 55% Merlot, 35% Syrah and 10% Sangiovese. The Promis is sourced from vineyards across Bolgheri and Bibbona with the majority in Bibbona on only dark soils rich in clay. The three varieties are fermented cool separately over 15 days. All varieties retain 15-20% whole bunch in the ferment and are then aged in a mixture of Tonneau and Barrique. The name Promis, derived from the Italian word for promise is in reference to the Gaja family’s commitment to bringing and producing world class wines from the region.
