Wine Details
The Gaja family - Angelo in front, with from L-R Gaia, Giovanni, Lucia and Rossana

Camarcanda 2018 6x75cl

Bolgheri DOP

The typical nature of white soil and the abundance of stones are essential to give the wine a solid and complex structure. A nose with flowery, red fruit and root notes, typical of the Mediterranean scrub. The taste is rounded, with a dense texture and a remarkable mineral character. Lingering finish with smooth tannins

Vineyards

The grapes are grown in vineyards planted on white soil which is rich in limestone, firm clay and stones.

Winemaking

The two varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, are fermented and macerated separately for around 15 days. After 12 months of ageing in oak and further 6 months in concrete vessels, they are blended and aged for several months in the bottle before being released.

Enjoy with:

  • Grilled and Roasted Red Meats
  • Grilled and Roasted White Meats
  • Pizza/Pasta
  • Casseroles/Stews
  • Mature Strong Cheeses
A worthy match for roast meats, steak or mature cheeses
