This is the entry point to Ca’Marcanda’s red wines (if not all the red Gajas). It is a blend of Merlot, Syrah, and Sangiovese. The choice of Toscana IGT over Bolgheri DOC reflects Gaja’s creative freedom, allowing the inclusion of Syrah and Sangiovese, which do not fit into Bolgheri’s traditional Bordeaux-focused classification. The terre brune soils lend depth to the wine, offering juicy blackberry, spice, and herbal undertones, with the freshness of Sangiovese adding vibrancy.

Notes

Gaja Ca'Marcanda "Promis" Toscana IGT Rosso is a refined and approachable red blend from the Ca'Marcanda estate, located in Bolgheri, Tuscany. Created by the iconic Gaja family, "Promis" combines Merlot, Syrah, and Sangiovese to craft a wine that embodies the elegance and warmth of the Tuscan coast. The name "Promis" reflects promise, commitment, and the realization of quality—values that guide the Gaja family's winemaking philosophy at this estate. On the nose, "Promis" offers inviting aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and dark cherries, accompanied by hints of Mediterranean herbs, spice, and a touch of leather. Subtle notes of licorice and a gentle earthy undertone add complexity. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and smooth, with well-integrated tannins and balanced acidity that carry flavors of dark fruit, black pepper, and a hint of chocolate. The finish is long, polished, and satisfying, with a touch of minerality that reflects the coastal terroir.
