Product Notes

Gaja Ca'marcanda Vistamare is a premium Italian wine that embodies the essence of the Mediterranean coast. The wine is made from a blend of four grape varieties: Vermentino, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, and Semillon, creating a harmonious balance of flavors and complexity. Aromas of ripe peach, pear, and tropical fruits are layered with hints of jasmine and white flowers. On the palate, Gaja Ca'marcanda Vistamare is beautifully structured and rich, with a refreshing acidity that highlights its minerality. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a lasting impression of its depth and subtlety. Enjoy this luxurious wine with seafood, pasta dishes, or simply on its own.

Tasting Notes

This wine opens with intense floral notes of acacia and linden flowers. On the palate, it is fresh and compact with notes of bergamot, pear, nectarine and white currant before moving towards a more mineral and spicy character, with notes of flint, rosemary and saffron. The wine gets riper in the finish with hints of mango, along with a slight hint of olives

About the Winery

Gaja

Established in 1859, Gaja is a family-owned winery in Italy. Giovanni Gaja founded this winery, and his great-grandson, Angelo Gaja runs the estate today. The family produces grapes in the 250 acres of vineyards it owns in Italy's popular wine region, Piedmont. This estate is located exactly in the districts of Barbaresco and Barolo.

In 1994, this family-owned estate became the proud owner of the Pieve Santa Restituta estate in Tuscany's Montalcino area. This 40-acre estate in Tuscany is dedicated to growing Sangiovese varietals. In the next year, Gaja acquired its second Tuscan Wine Estate called Ca'Marcanda in Bolgheri. This significant estate stretches to 150 acres, and is dedicated to growing many international grape varietals, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Syrah.

The current owner, Angelo, should be given a lot of credit for putting Piedmont on the global map today. He introduced many path-breaking winemaking technologies in his winery, for all the range of wines he produces – Brunello and Super-Tuscan. Though a family-owned estate, Gaja is one of the main reasons why people across the globe love Italian wines. The distribution wing of Gaja is responsible for importing wines from some premium regions like Champagne, Bordeaux, California and Chile, and improving their popularity in Italy.

The Barbaresco is the flagship wine of Gaja Wine Estate. It is made from the indigenous Nebbiolo varietals collected from over 14 Barbaresco vineyards. Some of the other popular wines from Gaja are:

Costa Russi – Made from 95% Nebbiolo and 5% Barbera, this wine is made from single-vineyard grapes.

Some of the Barolo wines of Gaja are:

Sperss – Made from 100% Nebbiolo grown in the Serralunga vineyard

Conteisa – Made from 100% Nebbiolo grown in Cerequio

A few other interesting Gaja wines include:

Darmagi – Made from 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc
