Description
 
Tuscany’s Maremma area, south of Livorno, is one of Italy’s most dynamic wine regions. Ca’Marcanda, the Gaja family’s newest wine estate,is located in the famed Bolgheri district in the commune of Castagneto Carducci. The winery’s name comes from the Piedmontese dialect and means “house of endless negotiations.”It refers to the hundreds of hours Angelo spent trying to convince the property’s previous owners to sell the estate,which had been primarily an olive grove and fruit orchard, with only a few hectares of vineyards.

The 2020 Bolgheri Rosso Magari is Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, with the Franc in a leading position at 60% to 65%. Born in a vintage that saw plenty of sunshine and luminosity from the Tyrrhenian Sea just a few kilometers away, this edition of Magari is especially round, voluminous and fleshed out. The 2020 vintage is considered quite toasty elsewhere in Tuscany, but in fact was more contained here along the Tuscan Coast thanks to steep diurnal shifts between day and nighttime temperatures and a cool spring. The year also saw enough rain at the right moments to assure stress-free fruit ripening. The wine opens to dark blackberry and sweet spice, with a very polished and silky side to robust fruit concentration. Wine Advocate 94
